The Suggestive World of Nikita Nomerz


The Fire In The Eyes
Nikita Nomerz is a russian graffiti artist with a predilection for revealing the hidden faces of derelict buildings and abandoned structures in Russia. Every ruin hides a story and a character that is struggling to be free. Sometimes what is missing is a mouth here or a pair of eyes there and an old building is transformed into a laughing giant or a toothless character right out of Alice’s Wonderland. To see the potential in what the others despise and ignore. To complete what is suggestive. To reveal. They say that the eyes are the windows of the soul and the mouth is the door. If that is the case, Nikita Nomerz is not only giving these relics of a bygone age a new lease of life transforming them into works of art. He is in fact giving them a soul.
