Parisian street artist 'C215' creates multicolored feline street art and stencils it all over the world.
While it is quite common to see stray cats wandering around when travelling, what is less common is seeing cats in the form of stencil art on walls around the world. The art is often found on walls on which beauty is difficult to see, often surrounded by garbage, other graffiti, or in run-down areas. Not all of his art is in these areas however, as it can also be seen on walls on outdoor cafes and mailboxes in the middle of apartment complexes. The unique choice to stencil cats rather than other typical graffiti art makes the artist's work much more memorable.
C215's work shows the importance of beautifying areas by using inspiration and art, as its effect can change an area's entire aesthetic.
