Der französische Street Artist Julien Malland aka Seth Globepainter erstellt gigantische Murals mit gesellschaftlicher Botschaft. Die Kinder als Zukunft unserer Welt, werden gesichtslos in Settings gesteckt, die Interpretationsspielraum besitzen. Für eine bessere Welt, für mehr Gerechtigkeit, für Frieden. Mal direkter, mal verspielter dargestellt.
„During the course of his artistic explorations, Seth developed his distinct painting style, working often with the theme of childhood. Using the wall as a blank page, Seth relies on one hand the individual or collective imagination – local gods, myths, or tales. The child becomes a spokesperson, a messenger of his investigations. He puts into play his image of innocence, and places his character in difficult social, political and geographical contexts. An approach that often has a dual meaning yet is never cynical; an urban painting that is engaged in alerting on the state of the world as a means to advance it.“ (Artist Statement)
