Sergey Nigoyan's portret
Portrait of Sergei Nigoyan, a Ukrainian of Armenian origin. He was the first victim of the Revolution of 2014 in Ukraine. Sergei is also enrolled in the Heavenly Hundred.
Vhils, Alexandre Farto aka vhils. The Portuguese street artist.
Vhils - the author of the graffiti on Mikhailovskaya Square in Kyiv:
«At one time I met Serhiy Nigoyan’s family and was touched by his story. He was the first to die on the Maidan, fighting for freedom and dignity. And I still remember my impressions of the location that was chosen for the mural with Serhiy (the wall of the brick house facing Saint Michael’s Square and St. Michael’s Golden-Domed Monastery. — Note from DTF Magazine). So I wanted to perpetuate the memory of him and create another portrait of him, this time from the posters that were created to keep up the morale of Ukrainians. I think it’s also very symbolic».

Graffiti with a portrait of the hero of the Heavenly Hundred Sergei Nigoyan appeared in the center of Kyiv
The author of the graffiti is Alexander Farto, an artist from Lisbon, known under the pseudonym Vhils.
Serhiy Nigoyan was an Armenian-Ukrainian Euromaidan activist who became one of the first killed during the Revolution of Dignity in Kyiv in January 2014. He died on January 22, 2014 after being mortally wounded. He was twenty years old.
Filming the project "There are people" to the 200th Anniversary of Shevchenko, producers managed to record video footage of Nigoyan reciting a fragment of Shevchenko's poem "The Caucasus".
І вам слава, сині гори,
Кригою окуті.
І вам, лицарі великі,
Богом не забуті.
Борітеся — поборете,
Вам Бог помагає!
За вас правда, за вас слава,
І воля святая!
And glory, mountains blue, to you,
In ageless ice encased!
And glory, freedom’s knights, to you,
Whom God will not forsake.
Keep fighting — you are sure to win!
God helps you in your fight!
For fame and freedom march with you,
And right is on your side!
Taras Shevchenko The Caucasus .Translated by John Weir

Exposition WE ARE HERE au Petit Palais
Le Salon : Plus de 200 oeuvres ont été rassemblées dans cette dernière salle. Un accrochage spectaculaire qui a été pensé comme un hommage aux différents Salons comme le Salon des Refusés ou le Salon d’Automne, à l’origine de nombreuses révolutions artistiques au tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles.
Dans cet esprit, les œuvres réunies dans cette salle ont été créées par des artistes majeurs qui ont écrit et continuent d’écrire l’histoire du mouvement Street art : Shepard Fairey, Invader, D*Face, Seth, Cleon Peterson, Hush, Swoon, Vhils, Inti, Add Fuel... Des artistes dont on rencontre des réalisations sur les murs de Paris.

Street Art, 3-dimensional, by VHILS, the man with the electric chisel.
Created for HandHeld Art's November contest: STREET ART.
This eye is a section of a much larger piece of wall art that I shot in Venice Beach, CA. The face is chiseled into cement that coats a brick wall. The amazing artist is Vhils and you can view the entire original HERE. It's number 5 on the list.
Created entirely on the iPad using Leonardo and iColorama. There is a second photo (a fractal) blended into the eye plus other color and effect filters.

Né en 1987 à Lisbonne, l’artiste portugais Alexandre Farto aka Vhils commence à graffer dans les rues dès l’âge de 13 ans. Il part poursuivre ses études artistiques à Londres et c’est là qu’en 2008, invité par Banksy au Cans Festival, sa notoriété explose. Sa technique du scratching consiste à graver ou sculpter en creux une surface que ce soit au burin, à l’acide ou au marteau-piqueur. Vhils fait ainsi apparaître avec une grande subtilité des visages, connus ou inconnus, qui interpellent le passant au cœur de la ville.

Unsung Hero
Created by celebrated Portuguese artist Alexandre Farto, internationally known under tha alias Vhils, this monolithic portrait is realized through his signature medium, carving and drilling directly onto the preserved façade of the former Nam Fung Textiles. The title symbolizes the memories of a former generation that built Hong Kong’s history and economy.
