The emergence of land art as a movement that refuses to commercialize art, is exposed to the emergence of a commercial gallery LISOVAgallery, which opened in 2020 on a chalk quarry in the village. Mohrytsia in the Sumy region. The White Wall, created by Natalka Lisova in 2015 as a land art project, is becoming a white cube, with all its hidden mechanisms of power. The second exposition in the gallery was the exhibition of its director — Katya Buchatska:

"Levkas made of Mohrytsya chalk, a female sculpture and an inscription made of local clay — a form for my reflections on the" art of the environment ", since working with it always starts with confusion.

It has long been necessary to write something on the wall, and to recognize land art as a historical phenomenon, which in fact is no longer developing. The exhibition boundaries call into question art concepts: women's terracotta, a painting on the wall, natural materials in the environment — are present.
