Penis Parade depicts a military parade comprising miniature gypsum soldiers, tanks and rocket carriers, in phallic form. Military occupations are an unreasonable waste of economic and human resources, carried out in order to show strength and to put fear in the people. The installation is made of gypsum G10 (mined in the city of Artemovsk, in the Donetsk region, where recent Russian-Ukrainian hostilities took place, on the border between the armed forces of Ukraine and the armed forces of the militia of the Donetsk People Republic). Gypsum G10 is considered an expendable sculptural material, just as soldiers for most commanders are expendable—human life does not matter in the realm of the war. After the exhibition of his new works in the Kiev Academy of Arts in January 2019, where he was faced with growing threats to his art, life and well-being from ultra-right forces in Ukraine. An installation in which Khachanov placed dozens of miniature plastering soldiers and military vehicles in phallic terms in a lengthy military parade that occupied the academy’s corridor. Starting with threats from a professor at the academy, the growing cohort of fascists, in particular the notorious C14 group, threatened Spartak’s life.
