The Twenty-First Slav Epic

A Century After Slavs for Humanity

A speculative design whitepaper proposing Slav Epic 21, an independent six-faced symbolic public-memory monument derived from Alphonse Mucha's Slav Epic one century after its concluding canvas, Slavs for Humanity. The paper treats the original twenty canvases as a symbolic source system and translates their recurring forms language, memory, war, treaty, exile, labor, custody, revival, shadow, and humanity into a new spatial monument organized around humanity, war, memory, sovereignty, diaspora, and common work.
