Arkady Ostritsky

Visual impressions are Arkady’s way of life. Perceiving the world, mainly in the form of visual images, he tries to create his own. Literature and music are interesting, but they are secondary in his view. Most of the images that attract attention, Arkady can store in memory. He is a slave of visual images, but this does not bother him, and he is even happy. Arkady also likes the means of art and the process of creating an image. Creativity is a source of mood and vitality.
