The social sculpture offers a contemplation and materialization of books and reading. Since their beginnings as a book club in 2006, publications have been at the core of the collective’s activities. PrayWay refers formally to the rahlé, a traditional bookstand common to Central Asian Islam for holy books and the takht or topchan, what the collective calls RiverBed–in honor of its ideal placement by a source of water found at teahouses, roadside kiosks and at the entrances of mosques across Iran and Central Asia. PrayWay is a typical example of Slavs and Tatars’ participatory, relational works, creating a space for conversations, and intercultural communication.
