The apple of my eye
The apple of my eye — a series of murals about urban identity created by Nuvo Buro and Samokat together with the residents of three Russian cities. The theme of hospitality integrates the image of heartfelt communication that reveals local symbols and images that are important to people and that shape spatial aesthetics through conversations about values.
Artist and illustrator Natasha Pastukhova travels through Russian cities and, together with residents, creates monumental murals, like a craftswoman weaving a canvas from the stories she hears together with a team of folklorists and anthropologists, all while exploring the city.
The project is an analytical study of the context of place and a series of murals that appear in the urban environment. Visually it is a form of contemporary art (public art) that is created together with local residents through participatory practices.
