Arty. Street artist Arina Apostolova

Street artist Arina Apostolova painted her first wall at the age of 13, then studied architecture, but decided to dedicate her life to painting and street art. Arina has worked in Ukraine, China and Australia, including painting a skate park near Canberra with an area of about 500 square meters. In March, her work won the Imagine Frankston People's Choice Award in Melbourne.

We recorded this interview before Arina Apostolova won the Imagine Frankston People's Choice Award. In an interview, we talk about being nominated for a prize for this work:
