Through a tweet of a tweet of a tweet that I lost track of somewhere, I came across some fantastic street art from Kiev, according to the post from one of the handful of street artists in Ukraine:
“We don’t see much street art coming out of Eastern Europe, but these surreal street murals by Kiev-based Interesni Kazki rank up there with some of the best in the world.
“There is no street art scene in our country, says Waone and Aec, who make up the two man group. “[The] Ukrainian street art scene is represented by less than 5 people.”
“We can define our art as street art or muralism with graffiti roots. The working process by itself inspires me. The more I create, the more ideas I get,” says Waone.”
I love the fantastic colors and smooth style of these projects. The one below fits into its environment playfully and smoothly, becoming a refreshing surprise in an otherwise plain landscape–which is exactly what street art should be.
I really love the second mural, very cool!
Not your average street art at all! It would certainly hold up well in any gallery but is so refreshing that it’s out there on the street.
Yeah, its delightful, no?
It’s definitely very polished–which is unusual.
