Kört-Aika Monument, Steel monument in Kortkeros, Russia.

The Kört-Aika Monument features a steel figure of a man pulling multiple boats with chains at the entrance of Kortkeros village.

Alexander Sushnikov from St. Petersburg and Georgii Gorbachev from Moscow created this steel monument under commission from the Russian Union of Blacksmiths president.

The monument connects to Komi mythology, despite initial concerns from residents about its potential promotion of native religious practices.

The one-tonne steel structure measures 100 by 100 millimeters in height and 80 by 80 millimeters in length, with chains extending 40 by 4 millimeters.

The International Festival of Blacksmith Art named Kort Aika takes place near this monument, celebrating metalworking craftsmanship in the region.
