Today I want to show you one of the most creative artist I know. “Zdey” becomes famous in some months, he is an example of perseverance. Indeed, he started has many street artist with illegal artworks in the street such as defacing mailboxes. Then, he created a little guy in black and white which quickly became his signature as Space Invader for example. To me, his work make our environment less bleak. Personally, I think his art brings colors. For example, he made a great artwork the 27th of October 2017, we can see that he painted on a shutter between two dull walls, so it brighten colors in a place where there is not. However, this art is ephemeral, it can be damaged or even destroyed because of people passing in front of. Along the way, he becomes really famous and his art is not illegal anymore and it is not vandalism at all because some people want him to do their home or much bigger. In fact, before this work of art, a school director called him to do a part of his school. When I went to see it, I was really admirative because it was a big work. This time it was an exhibition and here, it has been the best place to publish his work. So it was and it’s still my favorite work from Zdey.
The street artist covered all the walls of the court while putting references to the book “The Alchemist” from the famous writer Paulo Coelho. To me, it totally conveys a message which is to fight for our objective and to make every effort to reach it. For example he wrote some words like “dream” and “future. However, he made a reference to the movie “Va, vis et deviens” with the sentence “Dream, read and become”. Finally I just understood it like that. To finish, the book the alchemist is very powerful and it is great that a street artist take advantage of his fame to convey some messages. He probably used hundred and more spray cans and free-hand aerosol paints.
I really enjoy his work and if you can follow him on instagram, it could be great.
