The video released Thursday night is a kind of “make of” in which Banksy can be seen cutting out stencils and spray-painting – but without showing his face. The works, mostly in black and white, are then shown: for example, an old man with a long beard sitting in a bathtub in Horenka, scrubbing his back with a large brush. The image is sprayed onto the tiled bathroom wall of a house with a huge gap in the facade. Another work depicts a woman seemingly standing on a chair set once morest the facade of a burned-out house. She is wearing hair curlers, a gas mask, a dressing gown and is holding a fire extinguisher.
Other images show female gymnasts dancing over the impact hole of a bullet with a waving ribbon or balancing upside down on mountains of rubble. The black outlines of children can be seen on concrete barricades, apparently using a metal anti-tank barrier as a seesaw. The artist spray-painted a rocket launcher onto a rectangular box, the gun of which looks like a penis painted on the wall of a school toilet. In the ruins of a kindergarten, a young judoka throws an adult fighter – whose physique resembles that of Russian President Vladimir Putin – to the ground. At the end, a lettering is displayed with the words: “In solidarity with the people of Ukraine”.
