Julien Nonnon projected hundreds of couples kissing onto various buildings and architectural facets across Paris for his new project '#le_baiser'. The new urban, digital street art experience is intended to spread love and laughter throughout Paris.
Nonnon was inspired by the Alfred de Musset quote "the only true language in the world is a kiss." Nonnon held a casting call for hundreds of couples to be filmed kissing in order to create a 'library of love' that would contribute to '#le_baiser' and that would be shown all over Paris. Nonnon hopes to continue the project and spread his message of love and laughter all over the world.
Couples weren't the only ones to be filmed as part of the project. Nonnon also has families and mother-daughter relationships projected among the couples, to include the portrayal of love in any form.Photo Credits: businessinsider, designboom
