Serhii Hrekh

My name is Serhii Hrekh, many people know me by my nickname Feros, which has stuck with me since I was actively involved in graffiti. I was born in the city of Drohobych. For the last 10 years I have been living and working in Lviv. 

My artistic career began with graffiti and street art, this experience influenced me as an artist and laid a powerful background in my further path, which is still manifested in my paintings and interpreted in new forms. Currently, I am concentrating on two areas - abstraction and figurative surrealism. It is these two different directions that I have been developing over the past three years that give me the opportunity to switch and experiment in my work. I also continue to work with murals and small walls in open spaces within Ukraine and abroad.  

In my figurative works, the central character is a person and their inner state that shapes the environment around them. Quite often it is a journey or a state, a dream, an illusion or a work of imagination. I like to create non-trivial subjects and experiment with color combinations, depth, shapes and moods on canvas.
