Originally from Paris, Christian describes museums as ‘dead places‘ with streets being ‘the best art galleries in the world‘. He says there is a ‘unique sensation‘ in doing artwork that is effectively illegal in most places.

For subject matter, most stencils are based on local people; those people that represent the true culture of the locations he visits.
