ABOUT THE MURAL:

“Swinging cones! Warnings for our bones!”, this mural plays on Skela’s main themes of environmentalism and the growing impact humanity is having upon the natural world and all the creatures that call this planet home. This big blue cat can be found on the front of Mano’s Wine, at 1919 Cherry, and was painted during the 2020 festival.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

“Born in France and growing up with a suitcase in hand, I have come to impregnate myself with the designs of humanity and nature. Throughout the years I have developed my unique style; skelarizing, which represents the geometric shells which envelope nature. A digitization of the organic. Along with my quirky characters and fantastical ideas, I have created a world where flowers lick happiness into you, ocean goddesses puke out trash, and creatures dance out warnings of dire times to come.

I have been actively painting murals since 2017, a self-taught spray painter and artistic challenge taker, having painted in places such as Mexico, Colombia, Miami and Kansas City among some. While I am not on the road painting murals, I am in my studio in New Orleans LA, where I currently reside, working on paintings, jewelry, and a novel.” - SanguineSkills.com
