Une revisite de la symbolique du Phoenix, mélangeant renouveau et nostalgie, illustrant mon envie de faire naitre un feu nouveau tout en gardant la tendresse de ce qui n'est plus.


Ami imaginaire est une artiste de street art parisienne, connue pour ses oeuvres colorées et ludiques qui égayent les rues de nombreuses villes en France et dans le monde depuis 2013.
Son style, souvent décrit comme joyeux et enjoué, fait la part belle aux couleurs vives et à des motifs organiques. Ses animaux aux contours minimalistes et aux tons chatoyants ont une personnalité unique et une énergie propre. Les oiseaux, les lapins, et bien sur les chats sont des sujets courants dans ses oeuvres, et son bestiaire s’agrandit au fil du temps. Lisibles au premier regard, les oeuvres de rue d’Ami imaginaire cherchent à provoquer un sourire, une pause de respiration dans le tumulte de la vie urbaine.
Dans le cadre de son travail d’atelier,
elle donne une seconde vie à des matériaux trouvés dans la rue en les transformant en supports. Les oeuvres ainsi créées font référence à la société de consommation et à la façon dont nous traitons les objets du quotidien, démontrant que l'art peut naître de n’importe quoi, et que la poésie peut être trouvée dans les endroits les plus inattendus. Un rappel que nous pouvons tous contribuer à un monde plus durable et plus joyeux en recyclant les matériaux qui nous entourent.
Au fil des ans, Ami Imaginaire a exposé ses oeuvres dans de nombreuses galeries à travers la France et l'Europe. Ses expositions solo ont attiré l'attention d’un public charmé par sa vision poétique et positive, qui fait d'elle une figure sensible de la scène streetart française.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
