We keep our life colourful with our todays´ spotlight on #PARIS!
We´re happy to see that street art talent C215 does not leave only one colour behind after what happened in the #CityOfLove.
""I try to interact with context, so I place in the streets elements and characters that belong especially to the streets. I like to show things and people that society aims at keeping hidden: homeless people, smokers, street kids, bench lovers for example." - he says about his art and message on his wesite http://www.c215.fr/C215/ABOUT.html
As you can imagine, we like this state of mind a lot! „heart“-Emoticon
C215, Christian Guémy, is a Parisian street artist focused on stencil graffiti who started spray painting in 2005, so let´s celebrate his 16 years of colourful creativity!
Wanna know, what Obey Giant thinks about this #colourloving guy from France?
""C215's art captures a light, depth, and humanity that is difficult, and rare using stencils, his chosen medium. Stencils tend to flatten images and make them static, but C215 has developed a style of illustrating and stenciling that yields an impressionistic illumination of his subject's character. Even though his technique is meticulously refined, C215's work transcends the formal and seems to get to the core of compassion and belief in the human spirit. Encountering C215's pieces on the street is always makes me happy" (Obey Giant on C215)
Yesso Obey, it makes us happy, too, so thank you Christian for beautiful art!
