DEBRI is an audio-visual interactive installation with ten narrative parts of speculative fiction and an interactive floor projection depicting space debris. The work explores "cosmo-politics, orbital debris and problematic definitions of 'free' space" in outer space.

The Russian word "Debri" means impenetrable dense forests, and metaphorically refers to complex, unexplored things. The installation inverts the traditional stargazer position by placing the projection screen on the floor, allowing audiences to assume the role of a "waste magnet" amid orbital debris.
