AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
BABY CAT
French-Swiss painter Thoma Vuille (a.k.a. MR. 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 lines and this spirit, almost childlike, come from the very source of his initial inspiration: a feline and laughing figure, drawn by a little girl while he was working in a classroom in Orléans in 1997. Then, he decides to disseminate the image of the tomcat on the walls of Orléans, with the sole objective of “bringing humanity and love into the city.” If at first glance MR. CHAT may 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 of our urban wanderings, his daresque smile bursts forth.
A figure that has become emblematic of French street art, Thoma Vuille progressively multiplies images of his yellow accomplice on all supports: facing forward or in profile, winged or simply suspended in the air or peacefully settled between two chimneys.
His iconic cat, recognizable by its distinctive yellow color and its big smile, is now available in 3D.
