Elevate
Atlanta, USA, oct. 2012
 
Atlanta, Georgia is one of the sister cities for my hometown, Toulouse France. This year, through a partnership of both cities 
Offices of Cultural Affairs and the French Consulate to Atlanta, I was invited to participate in the 2012 edition of the Elevate 
Atlanta Art Festival. This was my first time to Atlanta. I painted this American flag mural made of names.
I collected these names from people I met during my time on South Broad Street, the location of my artwork. It was a great
experience. I had many opportunities to meet many different " Americans ", long time residents, store owners, homeless community
members, Vietnam vets, a couple by the name "Gay Judges", local Hip Hop stars, preachers, grandmas, gangstas, workers etc, etc...
On the same block, PUSH, HENSE, SEVER and BORN presented big murals as well. My friend GriZZ aka Big Addict was there with me.
He produced this beautiful video with very cool pictures. They speak louder than I ... so, enjoy..!

I'm really happy to have that show at Montana Barcelona cause I have a true respect for Jordi and what the whole team is doing for Graffiti.

Happy to work with my boys Tober and Kool.T to set up the exhibition, happy that my cute Virgin girlfriend, Grizz and Olive came from France

for the opening, happy to see Miss Van, Valou, Landry and all the people who came for the show. That city definitely brings something more

" human " than most of the places I've been recently. I love that feeling...!

Special thanks to Jordi, Anna, Albert and the all Montana team.

French Invasion
Los Angeles, USA, may. 2012

" I'm going going, back back to Cali Cali... "

The gallery Fabien Castanier invited me for this french group show along with Speedy Graphito, Jonone, Nasty and Rero.
It was so nice to spendtime in the studio with Speedy and hang out with my friends Jon and his wife Maï. We painted that
Hollywood blvd back yard club surrounded by groups of  high heels girls. Even if I m a NYC lover for sure, I have to admit
that I enjoy LA more and more. I m getting old I guess...! Mambo, West TC5, Sket and Seen came to the opening. I was so
happy to " go over " Jonone  with Seen cause he is (with Cope who is my throwy mentor) my favorite throw up artist ever...

Walls And Frames: Fine art from the streets

Edited by Maximilliano Ruiz

Published by Gestalten, Germany.

Walls & Frames is a cutting-edge collection of recent work by 101 known and emerging artists from around the world bound
to the streets in different aspects. These ambitious talents are keeping their connection to the street alive while establishing
themselves in the art market with work in traditional formats such as painting, sculpture, installation, and prints. The book
shows how artists, who work with limited time and a small selection of tools on the street, are developing other styles, concepts,
and techniques in the studio that are, in turn, influencing the direction of contemporary art.

The book presents current work by Alëxone Dizac, Anthony Lister, Blek le Rat, Bom-K, Conor Harrington, D*Face, Dave Kinsey,
Der, Docteur Gecko, Doze Green, Eine, Evol, Faile, Faith 47, Herakut, Herbert Baglione, Jeremy Fish, JR, L’Atlas, Mark Jenkins,
Miss Van, Paul Insect, Remed, Shepard Fairey, Smash 137, Sowat, Turf One, Vhils and many more.

Panic Room
Marseille, France, feb. 2012

The hotel Au vieux panier asked me to design a room, I first told them that I wasn't interested doing just decoration in the room
but I wanted to create something that will look more like an installation. I thought about it also as a huge canvas where I needed
to think about the composition and play with the empty white part of the room to accentuate more the idea of Chaos on the other
part. Then I asked my friend Tober who gat a great old school style for tags, Grizz who is also the man behind the camera and
Don Cho who is a Hip Hop singer from Marseille but who used to be a tagger from my home town Toulouse. It took one week
to do the whole thing cause the idea was to exaggerate what you can usually see in some abandoned places. Too much tags,
too much drips, too much sentences, too much throw ups ... What I also wanted to show is that people can appreciate
any type of graffiti, even the more basic, it's just a matter of point of view ...
