Sta.sh
A very uncommon work for me, because of no real people on the picture, just graffiti. Both of them are located in Pripyat, a small town just 1 mile away from Chernobyl nuclear plant that exploded 22 years ago, in 1986. Nowadays Pripyat is a ghost-town, visited mostly by tourists (especially fans of "S.T.A.L.K.E.R" game) and strange guys like me. All such trips are under control of the government, you have to have a special permit for accessing the area of the biggest nuclear catastrophe of all times. The impression from that trip will never fade in my mind.
Several years ago an unknown artist, under impression of the atmosphere of this town, left the series of graffiti on the walls. These two depict children, a boy and a girl. A girl tries to reach the elevator button which is sooo high for her, a boy just sits calmly and probably thinks about how lonely he is in this totally abandoned place.
I'm telling you: you can almost hear the children's voices in this town, the voices of those who used to live here.
My humble work was just to combine these two artworks together.
