"One snowy morning on a sandy beach in Hossegor, I imagined the Spirit of the Leopard, powerful and protective, like a tutelary figure from the mists of time."

The work is composed of 4000 letters.

Artistic and technical approach :

Beyond the message conveyed by the text, graffiti is an identity mark. The style of a "writer" is defined by its letters. This is the very essence of the graffiti artist, the letter then becomes his message. His work is modern calligraphy. The letters thus free themselves from constraints, from standards, to deconstruct themselves infinitely and offer a spectacle limited only by the imagination of its author. "Wildstyle" is a style of graffiti in which the letters are intertwined, merged and extravagant. Their ends are dynamic and can be transformed into arrows or points. The letters are re-imagined; it becomes difficult to decipher a wildstyle for a new eye. Conversely, the "bubble" (also called flop or "throw-up") simplifies the letters to the extreme, to keep only the movement. This circular style with tapered ends is done quickly, often in a few seconds. The impact of a flop lies in the pattern it forms with the letters. With Emrod One's creations you have the opportunity to enter the world of a graffiti artist. Seemingly cryptic, it takes the form of mosaics to reveal a message, an aesthetic of street art.
