«I never start working if I feel no inspiration, even if I’m in a bad mood or if I just have a great deal of fatigue… If there is no confidence in conception correctness, no love for a new-born image, no internal bent for work… A true sculptor is simultaneously a poet, a composer, and a philosopher…»

Acquaintance with Maya Pliseckaya. 1992 year.

Sculptures dedicated to the ballerina, Plisetskaya appreciated very highly, noting that the artist as accurately as anyone, managed to capture her character and personality.

"The sculptural portrait of Victor Mitroshin" Maya "seems to me one of the most successful works of contemporary artists in the last thirteen years I have lived. I read my character in his work. The sharp corners of it. The rush, which I put so many worries on my head. I even see my fate. And the ballet vocation ... In a word, the similarity is obvious. But the sharp eye of the sculptor is obvious. His temperament. Will. God's gift."
