I am a contemporary artist from Odessa, working under the pseudonym Anatoly Grusha. I used to do only street art, such as street art, graffiti, which required anonymity because not all people liked what I was doing. Recently I have been trying to work with hostas and directly painting in a workshop. My work has received a positive response and I was offered exhibitions and even earned a little money, but despite this I continue to hide my face behind a mask. People must not see the artist, they must not judge him, his style of dress, his speech and so on. They should be watching purely for the artwork. If this is the case, the viewer has his own romantic image of the artist. My inspiration is the city, the streets and the endlessly disturbing lives of those who are there. Borderline states between suggestive reality and seductive fantasy. I find in it innocent wisdom, dreams and liberation, beauty and conflict.
