Repairing Streets (10 Photos) - STREET ART UTOPIA

In cities like Ankara, Lyon, and Belgrade, Ememem continues to repair cracks, potholes, and broken infrastructure—not with concrete, but wit

In cities like Ankara, Lyon, and Belgrade, artist Ememem continues to repair cracks, potholes, and broken infrastructure—not with concrete, but with intricate mosaics. This new collection includes a fractured stairway reborn in Zagreb and a patterned burst around a manhole cover in Reims. Each work feels site-specific, shaped by the damage itself.

ememem.flacking Paris. September 2023

Ememem is an anonymous French street artist based in Lyon. They create mosaics incorporating geometric motifs in cracked sidewalks and façades, a process they call flacking. Ememem creates art at night, so that it is generally discovered at dawn.

Ememem lives in Lyon, where they are known as “le chirurgien des trottoirs”, “the surgeon of the sidewalks”. The name “Ememem” refers to the sound of their moped, which they ride when they go to create a mosaic.

Monday Murals Street Art… Art on the street.

In the footsteps of Ememem, the "flaker" not the rapper. I stumbled upon this one walking along the seine, the side I usually don’t walk; Cour La Reine near Pont Alexandre III.

***Flacking is a low-tech artistic technique that consists in repairing potholes and gashes in public space with mosaics, Lego and/or ceramic materials. The works thus created are called "flackings" or "sidewalk dressings" and are grafted to the ground. They have a random life span depending on the habits of passage and the type of use of the repaired space. Often associated with the practice of kintsugi, flacking aims to repair and beautify public space.

The word "flacking" was coined in 2016 by mosaic artist Ememem, to describe his "artistic mending" of the city of Lyon. It is derived from the French word "flaque" because the works created are similar to puddles of color. Initially a "wild" urban art practice, flacking has become a practice chosen by municipalities as a low-tech and artistic solution to repair pedestrian spaces in the medium term.***
