The name of Vladimir Ovchinnikov has been widely known in Russia for the last decade, just as long as the street artist lives in the city, which seemed to bewitch him. The city of Borovsk is a strange place, which has been an island of memory for many innocent victims since the 14th century. Boyar Morozova died here, archpriest Avvakum was imprisoned, victims of political repressions were shot. Here, Ovchinnikov suddenly began to draw on the walls of houses, despite the indignation of the authorities, since the "naive" graffiti artist is not 19 years old, but 80. Real passions began to flare up in the city in 2015, when Vladimir Ovchinnikov depicted his first "memorial to the victims of political repression."
