AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Parisian gallery CHENUS LONGHI presents “The Whisper,” an original drawing by Mahn Kloix created especially for Urban Art 360. Measuring 30 × 30 cm, it was made using his distinctive dry pastel technique on grey paper. A little girl whispers in a man’s ear; one can easily imagine he is her father. What is she telling him? A secret, a question, a confidence? The viewer is kept apart from this exchange, yet immediately senses their closeness. The drawing’s full power lies in this suggested intimacy, leaving everyone free to project their own story onto it.
With his restless lines, energetic hatching and touches of white, Mahn Kloix captures a fleeting moment without freezing its emotion. A lively drawing that reveals the artist’s sensitivity beyond his large-scale works with a social message.

About the artist:
Born in Paris in 1980 and based in Marseille, Mahn Kloix is a socially committed painter and draughtsman who trained at the École des Gobelins. His work is distinguished by its bold lines, graphic restraint and particular focus on major social and environmental issues.
Since his first posters pasted up in the street, he has created portraits of activists, public figures committed to causes and ordinary people whose struggles he seeks to bring to light. His monumental murals also address the protection of life. He has collaborated with organizations including Amnesty International, Médecins du Monde and SOS Méditerranée.
In 2026, he is taking part in the exhibition “Dans ses artères coule la vie” at Fluctuart and publishing “Entre les lignes,” a monograph on his artistic and activist journey with Éditions Alternatives.
Mahn Kloix is part of the street art movement, alongside artists such as Vhils, Invader, Shepard Fairey, JonOne, Kaws and Futura.
