Works

Ostap says of his art:
"I distance myself from the classic form of street art , like graffiti or tagging – with my art, I try to arouse an emotion in the audience, especially positive emotions, like smiles or laughs, or on the contrary – to show my personal attitude to the modern culture, politics, society, religion and sex. It does not mean, that in every work there is a great meaning, sometimes, I like to work with abstract forms and minimalist shapes."Although a street artist, Ostap's works have also been exhibited in various projects and galleries.
