According to Khasanova, "I aimed to blur the boundaries between time – the past, present, and future. This series reflects my travels across Kyrgyzstan and shows how deep an impact sincere smiles of people and the diversity of natural states leave. Through a monochrome reality and shimmering imaginary worlds, I wanted to connect the past with the future and the present. Kyrgyz women appear on distant planets, while a traveler from the post-humanist era finds himself against the backdrop of real landscapes of Kyrgyzstan. In all of this, there is something eternal: the same wind, the same silence, and the same rhythm of existence. This exhibition is about the light that carries its origin."
In addition to the exhibition, Elmira also participated in the cultural program on the international train Kulturzug, which traveled from Berlin to Wrocław. As part of her presentation, she delivered a lecture titled "Bridges Between Europe and Asia," where she spoke about the contributions of 20th-century travelers to the exploration of Central Asia, as well as the "Intergelpo" cooperative and modern trends and tourism potential of Kyrgyzstan.
