Nothing happening here at the moment, no time to do anything even if there were... However, I have come across some 'urban decoration' with an original twist on the usual graffiti themes that invariably crop up on any available wall space around the town.
Here, the central Lego figure is based on the Ange au Sourire from the façade of the cathedral, just at the end of the cobbled street. Not quite sure about the artist's command of English, but the overall effect made a change from the usual sprawling initials and coded names. These also had the novelty feature of being in a poster form that can be either pulled off, or left to simply peel off in the rain.
The one above looks as if it might be a little more permanent...
Well, another addition... This one must have been from Christmas time 2013, for obvious reasons, though I don't know what Santa's little gift might have been, as it has been ripped off.
I don't know what the references are here, though presumably one of them is to offal (= les abats).
This type of graffiti emerges sporadically, but doesn't last long. The ones I first posted didn't even make the end of the month, let alone see in 2014... Here are a few more that have just cropped up.
I like these, with all their snaky forms and weird details....
I don't really understand why people are so eager to tear these off...
I like trying to find them around town... like a mystery tour.
They appear in some strange places, though probably won't last much longer than the traditional variety. The spray paint stencil artwork is quite expressive, but is quickly removed.
The one above is part of the junky type of graffiti that usually just annoys me, but the panda with 'friend' makes a change...
