One of the features of Pazza works is the influence of pop art. Some of his works depict products that emerged in Ukraine after the fall of the Iron Curtain. "Brands are part of the artist's memory. Pazza was born in Ukraine in 1987, so years before the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Iron Curtain, that separated Western cultures of the Soviet Communist culture. These screens reflect that initial enchantment lived and especially the culture shock, reflected in the work by the presentation of new products juxtaposed to those existing in the country ", explains the curator.

In the series "Super Beam" she explores feminism, sexuality and censorship, themes marked by heavy Soviet control. Works in a beam of light invades rooms and domestic scenes, lighting naked bodies in environments that refer to years 80. "In 1986 one participant in a television program said that live ” there was no eroticism in the USSR”. Actually what she meant was that the subject was not addressed in the country's TV. This exemplifies how the matter was seen in the period, as something immoral and indecent. The work Pazza sheds light on this question, exposing a sexually emancipated context but at the same time does not identify the characters. Are women wanting freedom in their sexuality but are oppressed by the system ", says Azeco.

The public can also meet the video "My Corner" in which a young woman tells about the life of prostitution while on the screen appears an empty street. For two minutes and fifty seconds confession of character takes the visitor to reflect on the status of women today, anywhere in the world.
