OPUS #5

“I don’t do anything to attract attention, but to arouse emotions...” C215 is a nomad urban artist who puts up his stencils in Berlin, Amsterdam, Jerusalem, Casablanca, New Delhi, Istanbul... Without words nor commentaries, C215 throws to the face of the world the image of all who suffer from social exclusion, poverty, loneliness. In order to do that, he shows their faces. And to kill two birds with one spray, he questions the passerby and gives some dignity back to the underprivileged of the contemporary urban societies. C215 aims at the universal. His dialectic? Humanity in the inhumanity, hope facing despair. Thus men with no direction home in Paris or the homeless of New York, the Indian shoe-shines boys, the street children in Sao Paulo will be their models.

This book of Opus Délits introduces the work of the French wonder boy of stencil: C215. His unique style, precise and precious, leaves its mark on passerbys all over the world.
