The art of stylizing letters is at the origin of modern graffiti that appeared at the very end of the 60s, in New York and Philadelphia, depending on the version. These letters form words, these words form names and messages. Finally, these names and messages provoke emotions in those who look at them, this is where graffiti comes to life.

Appreciated, tolerated, or hated, graffiti is there, almost everywhere we look in urban areas and elsewhere. It is an important factor of emotions in our societies and has long since crossed the cultural borders of the 5 continents. As long as there is life, there will be graffiti.

“VAPORS OVER THE CITY” is the third part of ‘MAS Il Y A’, in this one, I present to you names that I painted, alone or accompanied, since my return to Marseille in September 2014. After the photographic look carried in the first two volumes, I have here the pleasure of presenting to you my small colored stone to the building of a simple and popular Marseille, as defended by many inhabitants of this indomitable city. Welcome to this world of vapors, from one neighborhood to another, this daring journey, which brightens up our alleys like these children who play and build the Marseille of tomorrow!
