Banksy confirmed to be in Ukraine after street artwork speculation

Bristol graffiti artist Banksy appears to have confirmed he is in Ukraine, ending much speculation. The artist posted to his Instagram page on Friday night, this time an image where a woman is doing a handstand on a rock.

The street artist added the caption, "Borodyanka, Ukraine" to his artwork on the side of her another war-torn building. In April this year, Russian Armed Forces targeted this city extensively.

The original artworks that caused speculation were on another demolished building in Borodyanka, showing a child throwing a man to the floor in a judo outfit. The other artwork shows a boy and a girl on a wall sprayed in such a way as to make it look like the corner of a metal frame on the ground in front of them is a see saw.
