130 Years of the Kursk Tram: Redefining Transport as a Space of Perception by Daria Savina

«130 Years of the Kursk Tram» is a project that invites us to take a fresh look at one of Russia’s oldest public transport systems, viewing it as a space for quiet contemplation and emotional engagement. The Kursk tram, which will celebrate its 130th anniversary in 2028, is traditionally perceived as a functional element of the city — a means of efficient travel around town. This project shifts that perception, transforming the tram into something slower, more intimate and almost contemplative.
