model.author.description

Kirill Kto included in the list of the Best Russian contemporary artists (ARTEEX). Artist Kirill Kto belongs to the special representatives of street art. Works of Kirill Kto is difficult to confuse with others. And this is despite the fact that street art of this level is difficult to sate with something new. He found his style in two things: he began to leave on the walls not signatures, but quotations, humorous or philosophical statements. Most often the letters are made in different colors. Sometimes next to them are figures of strange characters, about which it is better not to ask anything. Since 2013, the artist is actively engaged in graphics, more and more away from the street scene. This he calls the terms "postgraffiti" and "postflaksus." Means that on canvas or cardboard, in a workshop, everything is depicted the same as on the walls. Works of inscriptions have the same name as the inscriptions themselves. Interestingly, all the latest work of Kirill is so recognizable that they no longer need signatures.
