It’s also not lost on either brother how lucky they are to still have such a close bond.
“His adolescence is infinite,” Val offered with a smile, his explanation as to why it feels as if Maks isn’t all that much older prompting a laugh from his big brother.
Maks joked that Val loved working with him so much the first time—when Val was 12, Maks got him his first paid gig dancing at a Brooklyn restaurant where he performed—that they just kept at it. (“It was the money,” Val countered, miming an aside.)
“We’re related, but I also have a professional, world-level artist to create and work with,” Maks further praised his sibling. “So I think I’m lucky in that sense, too, but it’s very unusual, I have to admit.”
