The mural “жаба” by ISAKOV in Mannheim

Isakov’s work, which now adorns the facade of the GBG customer center at H 4, 9, blends architectural forms, playful ornamentation, and Ukrainian folklore. ISAKOV’S palette of orange, turquoise, and yellow is interspersed with black outlines that are unmistakably characteristic of the 27-year-old’s style. In just five days, he transferred his pre-prepared design onto the five-part facade using stencils and spray cans. Passersby, neighbors, and local shop owners couldn’t hide their amazement and delight as they watched ISAKOV at work.
