Subfield description
My art is mostly street art, made for the one-to-one relationship between work and a single passerby, not for big groups of people.
Check out the Love Conflict Imagination 2010-2011 outlines of Memefest Friendly competition.
Description of idea
Describe your idea and concept of your work in relation to the festival outlines:
I take small toys I find or friends give to me, and glue them to signs,walls,windows or scupltures in the city, always trying to create a funny,critical,joyous, sometimes even tragic relationship. Sometimes, interfering with a small toy,a whole story is told.
What kind of communication approach do you use?
It's a poetic way, using initially dead objects (walls,streets,signs on the one side, toys on the other) which brought together give birth to a new situation, often comical, relativizing the serious and objective meaning of urban architecture
What are in your opinion concrete benefits to the society because of your communication?
A laughter, a smile , a tear.
What did you personally learn from creating your submitted work?
Superglue burns your fingers
Why is your work, GOOD communication WORK?
It makes me walk many kilometers.
Where and how do you intent do implement your work?
Every city I pass through.
