Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

I just came back from Weil am Rhein in Germany, where I’ve been invited among RIPO, SOZYONE, C215, MOSE, TAPS & more.

I went their in order to paint a mural inside the new local of the museum, down Manhattan. I decided to make something that would spread a good message to the kids. A bit of an utopy I’ve always tried to protect against the teeth of cynism. I wanted to believe it is still possible to be naiv. And allow one to be hopefull.
