Evgeny Bondarenko is a Russian travel artist who has been sketching life experiences in cities around the world since 2010. When he first started these trips, traveling to six countries and over thirty cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Macao, Moscow, St Petersburg, Paris, and Taipei. His drawings are more than just travel notes; rather, they are a research of people’s lifestyles and perceptions. He found himself capturing the essence of a life on paper. A wave of something strange came over him. The unknown bright colors and the secret of the lines woven together before his eyes came to life. This process of art creation is a never-ending journey of exploration, personal experience, and learning.
