Let’s have a look at my StreetArt finds in Paris today.
Artist: OKUNDA
Title: ”THE NEW MONA LISA”
Location: Vla d'Esté, 13th Arr. / district in Paris
Work Created May 2017
Do have a look at his websites! His work is amazing…
His Instagram : Okudart!
His Website: Okuda San Miguel!
It states about the artists:
”OKUDA’S DISTINCTIVE STYLE OF GEOMETRIC HARMONIES EMBOLDENED WITH INTENSE COLOURS CAN MAKE HIS ARTWORKS FEEL LIKE THEY’RE FROM A PARALLEL UNIVERSE.
In his work, rainbow geometric architectures blend with organic shapes, bodies without identity, headless animals and symbols that encourage reflection in artistic pieces that could be categorized as Pop Surrealism with a clear essence of street forms. His works often raise questions about existentialism, the universe, the infinite, the meaning of life, and the contradictions of society’s false freedom, showing a conflict between modernity and our roots; ultimately, between man and the same.”
It States about this work:
”The 13th Arrondissement of Paris is home to “The New Mona Lisa”, a giant mural painted by Okuda San Miguel, who was commissioned by the district’s residents, in partnership with the By Night Gallery. “The New Mona Lisa” pays homage to Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece in the city of Paris, where it is held. It was also a way of leaving his mark on the French capital, with the interpretation of one of the most famous works in the history of art.”
Another angle of this amazing work:
The colours used and all the forms are just amazing, imagine the size of this piece… and the work it must have taken.
In THIS! website you see a few progress shots too. Have a look 😎😊
Do you see the clouds behind it too?
I do see a figure in it with arms wide… do you? 😉
Or do you see something else?
I can draw it for you if you don’t… let me know in the comments 😎😊
Further when I walked to this area… I saw this colourful building peaking above the fence. 😎
I just wanted to add it to the colourful mural from “The New Mona Lisa” 😎🤩
