Applied demonology is what Anna Engelhardt and Mark Cinkevich call their artistic method. Its chief object is the atrocious tactics of the Russian military in its colonial invasions. To approach their methodical evil and trace its onset, the artists uncover the life cycle of Russian air bases in Ukraine, Belarus, and Syria. Combining open-source intelligence, CGI animation, and medieval demonology, they look closely at the parasitic force that aims to possess the sovereign states, destroying them from within.
