"Once artist moved from Los Angeles to his current Brooklyn studio he rethought his creative process. He’s opting for cleaner lines and shapes, and less realism when compared to his earlier works. For these compositions, Gosha often spends a majority of time painting the eyes of his Russian Cowboys and supporting subjects. “These characters don’t have mouths, so they have to express with their eyes. It’s definitely a comment on something, like going through abuse as a child or even if you’re an adult,” he explains. “With the whole #MeToo movement, the victims have kept their mouth shut for years. They would just take the punch. I feel like I’m trying to show that with these characters that are mouthless and the only thing they could do is express with their eyes. " - Source: Hypebeast
