My graffiti, "Jungle fever"
JUNGLE FEVER

On this artwork, we can see two characters in a natural landscape. There is a lot of blue. The female character wears sunglasses, classy dress and shoes ; she is very elegant but doesn't seem to be dressed as if she was hiking in the forest.
This huge mural has been painted as if it was a movie poster, with a film director, a title and a subtitle. That makes this graffiti interesting and special, and that is why I am keen on it.
There are a lot of colours, a contrast between the warm ones and the cool ones, and there are several shades of blue. The characters are simple but nice, I couldn't have drawn something like that !
The sentence around the « classy lady » refers to climate change ; it says « the climate seems to get hotter, don't you think ? ». So maybe the artist wants to sensibilize us about it, and about what humans are doing to nature.
Using art to spread an important message like this one is something very interesting, that can make a difference.
On the artwork the first character that we see is the « classy lady ». She is small but doesn't seem to be respectful about environment. She can do whatever she wants in this landscape. She represents humankind, just like the man in the bottom left hand corner. He has his hands on his ears, just as if he wouldn't like to hear the truth about nature and climate. He looks happy in his denial.
This mural, to me, has also a poetic side . The sentence « un rendez-vous improvisé sous la Lune » maybe tells us that the two characters are in love, and see each other during night, under the Moon and the starry sky. That is romantic and poetic, even if it is a bit cliché.
Finally, the artwork is very original and I think it took time to paint it alone, so this is very interesting.
A very good sense of observation and an interesting interpretation. Your writing is very good. Congratulation, keep on like that!
