«There are two colosses in the center of the mosaic, the two Prometheuses, a miner and a steelworker, holding the flame from the depths, the symbol of coal and metal energy. The background is an egg-shaped symbol of the Universe surrounded by atomic cosmic orbits that unite galaxies, planets, satellites, plants and flowers into the sympnony of colors. The work’s idea is eternal movement, the unity of Men and Nature.» (G. Marchenko)
In 2012, the mosaics of the Donetsk school № 5 got on the Governmental List of the landmarks of Ukraine as a cultural heritage object of the national importance, being the only object of this status in Donetsk and Donetsk region.
