Anatoly and Yury Zelensky (3WINS)
In 2014 after rethinking their creative path, brothers came up with the name ZTWINS. Hence a new stage began, they started working together. Before that, since 2007, Yury and Anatoly have been working under separate pseudonyms. It was a time of experiments and active searching, time of making classical graffiti, its typical characters. From now on, ZTWINS depict architectural and industrial aesthetics in their artworks, they weave it all with geometric abstractions, and never afraid of experimenting. Architecture studies taught artists to pay attention to the context. “Before the work begins, we constantly explore sites: search for an area, observe the environment, choose the drawing place. Our artworks usually correlate with the context of the place” – artists say. In many cases, it is the ‘locus’ that sets the dynamics and overall feeling of work.
