Description from the seller
Work by Mr. Chat – Painting on aluminum plate – Signed – 26.5 × 47.5 cm – Street Art
Description
I am offering for sale a work by the Franco-Swiss artist Thoma Vuille, worldwide known for his iconic character Mr. Chat, an emblematic figure of Street Art.
This piece is created on an aluminum plate with a photographic background, on which the artist has intervened with paint.
The composition shows an urban scene in front of a building decorated with colorful frescoes, with several characters in the foreground. Over this photograph, the famous smiling yellow Mr. Chat cats appear, recognizable by their broad smile and their simple, expressive features.
Two figures of Mr. Chat occupy the foreground:
- one with arms wide open in an inviting pose
- the other holding a circular object, in the artist’s typical graphic style.
In the background, a large mural also reuses motifs and characters from the artist’s universe, mixing photography, painting and urban culture in a dynamic composition.
