Street Art Collection – Urban Art and Mural Culture
Discover our Street Art collection, celebrating urban art in all its forms: graffiti, murals, stencils, geometric compositions inspired by wall culture. This collection brings together the creations of artists who cut their teeth in the street, on walls, in public spaces before transferring their visual universe to canvas and paper. ROKO with his contemporary urban cubism developed in Reunion Island and internationally, Dame (Julia Carosin) with her geometric compositions born from graffiti in Mauritius, and other artists from the African, Canadian, European and global urban scenes make up this collection that brings the energy of the street into your home, without sacrificing sophistication and artistic quality.
Street art, from the street to the gallery
Street art, born as an illegal and protest art form in the 1970s-80s, gradually gained its stripes to enter galleries, museums, and private collections. Banksy, Shepard Fairey, JR, Invader and many others have demonstrated that urban art can achieve a technical sophistication and conceptual depth rivaling academic contemporary art. This legitimization of street art now allows urban artists to make a living from their practice without denying their roots: the wall remains their privileged playground, but canvas and paper become complementary media that make their work accessible beyond the neighborhood where their frescoes are located. Our street art posters extend this approach: to democratize urban art by making it accessible to all, in all interiors.
Our street artists
This collection brings together the creations of artists who share an intimate relationship with mural and urban culture around the world. ROKO, a graduate of ILLOI, develops a contemporary cubism nurtured by his years of graffiti practice, with monumental frescoes created in Reunion Island (LSA CREW) and internationally (China, Dubai, Malaysia). Dame (Julia Carosin), a multidisciplinary Mauritian artist, blends geometric lines, color gradients and architectural representations in compositions that bear the trace of her special relationship with "graffiti, trace, wall". Other artists from the African (South Africa, Senegal), Canadian (Montreal, Toronto), European and global urban scenes gradually enrich this collection with their own styles, creating a diversity that reflects the richness of the contemporary international street art movement.
Styles of street art represented
- Urban Cubism – Geometric forms, exploded perspectives, graffiti energy
- Mural Geometry – Lines, gradients, structured compositions inspired by the wall
- Stencils – Classic urban technique, sharp contrasts
- Lettering and Calligraphy – Urban typographies, stylized tags
Street art, a global movement
Street art is a global artistic phenomenon that transcends borders. From New York to São Paulo, from Paris to Johannesburg, from Montreal to Melbourne, urban walls become canvases of expression for thousands of artists. Each local scene develops its own identity: New York street art with its hip-hop energy, Latin American muralism with its monumental committed frescoes, European urban art with its conceptual sophistication, African graffiti with its vibrant colors and social messages. This global diversity nourishes the artists in our collection who, while rooted in their local contexts (Reunion Island for ROKO, Mauritius for Dame), interact with the global movement and draw inspiration from the richness of international street art.
Engaged art and messages
Street art often has an engaged, protest, or socially message-bearing dimension. ROKO, for example, has created frescoes on school bullying and canvases on themes of peace and justice in the context of COP28. This social and engaged dimension runs through our Street Art collection: some works question contemporary issues, others celebrate cultural diversity, some denounce injustices, many simply affirm the beauty and legitimacy of urban art. This depth goes beyond simple decoration to make each street art poster a cultural object full of meaning, a fragment of visual reflection on the contemporary world.
Who is this collection for?
The Street Art collection will appeal to urban art enthusiasts who follow the frescoes in their city and admire international mural artists. It will appeal to people looking for wall decor with character, energy, and a contemporary cultural dimension. It will particularly touch young urbanites sensitive to hip-hop, rap, and skate culture who grew up with graffiti as a visual backdrop. It will delight social activists who appreciate art that carries messages. It will enchant urban art lovers from all over the world, regardless of their city or country of origin. It will interest collectors of accessible urban art who cannot afford unique pieces but want to support the movement.
From wall to paper: challenges of the transition
Transposing a 50 square meter mural into a 50x70 cm poster poses technical and artistic challenges. The artist must rethink their composition so that it works on a reduced scale, adapt their colors for printing, sometimes simplify certain details that are lost in a smaller format. This adaptation work is not a simple reproduction but a true recreation of the work for a new medium. Some creations in our collection are designed specifically for the poster format, others are adaptations of existing frescoes, but all respect the street art spirit: energy, visual presence, immediate impact, urban authenticity.
Quality and formats
Printed on premium matte 180g/m² paper with UV-resistant inks, our Street Art posters preserve the intensity of colors and the sharpness of lines characteristic of urban art. Available in three sizes (30x40, 50x70, 61x91 cm) with an optional black (recommended for the urban spirit) or white frame, they adapt to all interiors. The 61x91 cm format provides a strong wall presence reminiscent of the scale of street frescoes, while smaller formats are suitable for confined spaces or multi-poster compositions.
Supporting the street art scene
By choosing a poster from our Street Art collection, you directly support the urban artists who enrich our cities with their creations. A portion of each sale is remitted to them, allowing them to continue their demanding practice which requires costly materials, invested time, and sometimes risk-taking (the blurred legality of certain urban interventions). This economic support legitimizes street art as a full-fledged artistic practice and encourages artists to persevere in their urban creative approach.
Explore our Street Art collection and bring the energy of the street into your home. Each poster carries the memory of painted walls, the spirit of urban culture, the talent of artists who chose the street as their gallery before venturing onto paper. Support the street art movement, celebrate urban creativity, and transform your living space with works that affirm your connection to the most vibrant and authentic contemporary culture.
