Levgeniia Batrushtai, better known by her artist nickname Nia Shtai, was born in 1990 in Kharkiv, Ukraine. As a child, she studied in boarding school for eight years, from 1997 to 2005. During this time, the country experienced numerous power outages, and in order to keep the students entertained, Nia's teacher would have her stand on a chair in front of the class and tell stories. It was through art that Nia was able to find solace during this difficult time.

Now, as an adult, Nia is facing a new crisis: the ongoing war in Ukraine. But once again, art has proven to be a source of comfort and inspiration for her. Through her paintings, she is able to express her love for the world and appreciate its beauty, even in the face of tragedy. Nia views her artworks as her children, a way to connect with others and share her experiences with the world.

Our Vision

Connect authentically to local art around the world.

Living in a fast-paced digital world where everything around us is fighting for attention, and we’re consuming culture on social media platforms, art has been pushed into the background.

It no longer touches us as deeply as it once did.

Just as a true music lover will always choose vinyl over a Spotify playlist, it has become crucial to bring something more tangible to real art lovers—something that can represent and carry all this beautiful art, putting it back at the center of our attention.

And so, the Street Lamp was born.

our Mission

making art a part of our day to day.

We want art to be more than just decoration. It should be a functional, inspiring part of people’s day-to-day lives, staying central to their surroundings while still serving a practical purpose.

We aim to give art lovers a way to not just view art but also collect it—both from the streets they explore and the digital spaces they frequent.
