Today, when borders have once again become the site of conflicts and wars, emigration is becoming an obstacle for people from different parts of the world. As citizens of Belarus, we were forced to leave the country after arrests and protests in 2020-21. In emigration, a person faces his own problems, and issues such as legalization and obtaining certain documents become an expensive price for emigrants, and this also applies to those emigrants who need legalization. The emigrant's goal is caught between the inability to return to his homeland and the inability to become its citizen, as do those who have become citizens of the country by birthright.

Marriage has long seemed like a relic of a patriarchal society, but it is even more interesting to see how the institution of marriage works in different countries and is associated with practices of care, access to another with the right to help in cases of emergency, in situations where laws do not work or do not work for everyone. For example, officially after the protests in Belarus, information appeared that there are 1,500 political prisoners in the country, in fact there are hundreds of times more, there are thousands of families who take care of their relatives who are forced to remain in prison due to the fault of the regime. And in order to be able to provide assistance to prisoners (medicines, clothing, food), you need to be a member of the family. Now political prisoners are limited even in correspondence and can only receive letters from relatives, and thousands of letters of solidarity and support never reach them.

In turn, the institution of marriage gives an emigrant in Poland the same opportunity to be the first person to come to the aid of a loved one, and to be a source of security and minimal stability if you are not a full citizen in your country or place of migration.

The work is a kind of new immigrant interior design, a wedding bouquet in the form of the countries through which we emigrated. Borders and countries are always presented as natural, historical things, although they are also designed and artificial. Like flowers printed on a 30 printer. Money as an important marker of the state loses its capital and signs and becomes simply decorative objects, like a tablecloth or a scarf made from documents that we received in order to be able to register a marriage.
