French artist MAYE has just finished its first fresco in Paris as part of the Street Art 13 project. From this building on 131 boulevard Vincent Auriol, the artist takes us to his region: the Camargue.
The artist’s works are always inspired by his memories. As usual, no element is left to chance and every detail of the work is at the service of its narration. Here, the artist wanted to bring us the sun of his native South, and immerse ourselves in the culture of the Camargue.
Its background, melon color, evokes this fruit typical of Southern France. The viewer discover a slender and graceful person riding a pink flamingo. It is a guard, a Camargue rider, dressed in traditional clothing with sandals. He holds in his right hand a trident, which usually allows the rider to keep the bulls in the rows. Maye replaces the guardian’s horse with a humorous pink flamingo.
Take a look below for more images and keep checking back with us for more updates from the streets of France.
