Artist's Comments

I was born during XXII Olympiad in Moscow. It was 1980 Year of the Monkey. Apropos of this merry occasion, my sister got a present – Olympic Kuzya. He quickly became our faithful playfellow, occasional apple of discord, an intimate observer of our quick childhood.

I’m 23. I no longer live in lethargic Dagestan, I use camouflage make-up to conceal crow’s feet, fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes. As for Kuzya… Who would have thought that plastic and oakum have such a galloping lifespan?! …

I brought Kuzya to Moscow, and later to LA, I showed him Amsterdam and Venice last spring, we went to Scotland and Berlin this Christmas. I’ll take him to Cuba, we’ll visit South America together...

Cheer up, Kuzya, we made it - Year of the Monkey has come again, it's our year, my friend. So let's have a ball :)

Prosit!
