AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
BABY CAT
French-Swiss painter Thoma Vuille (a.k.a. M. CHAT) was born in Boudry, in the canton of Neuchâtel, in 1977. He produced his first street-art works in acrylic when he was only 15, in memory of his grandfather, a building painter.
These traits and this spirit, almost childish, come from the very source of his initial inspiration: a feline, laughing figure, drawn by a little girl while he was working in a classroom in Orléans in 1997. Then, he decided to disseminate the image of the stray cat on the walls of Orléans, with the sole objective of “putting humanity and love into the city.” If, at first glance, M. CHAT can give the impression of a logo, due to the simplicity of his drawing and his “cartoonish silhouette,” he embodies much more, delighting us as much as he captivates us when, by chance during our urban wanderings, his Dantean smile surfaces.
A figure that has become emblematic of French street art, Thoma Vuille progressively multiplies images of his yellow helper on all supports: front-facing or profile, winged or simply suspended in the air or calmly installed between two chimneys.
His emblematic cat, recognizable by its distinctive yellow color and its wide smile, is now available in 3D.
