The art career of Vladimir Manzhos better known as Waone, begun in 1999. He started painting graffiti as a member of Ingenious Kids crew in Kyiv. In 2003, he got bored of letters and together with Aec went to the next level of public art - visual storytelling. They have been painting big surreal murals with fantastic stories. They developed their unique style of contemporary muralism with extraordinary ephemeral form of monumental art. In 2005 Waone and Aec established an artist duo - Interesni Kazki, which means "Interesting fairy tales" in ukrainian. Their murals are full of fairy characters, fine details, smooth gradients, symbols and stories. Next 10 years duo travel a lot. Inspiring by local cultures and traditions they paint murals expressing local flavor. Now their bright surreal paintings decorate the walls from Australia to Mexico and from San Francisco to Moscow.
