French street artist ROTI has a talent for whimsical murals. He aims to “make art that is free, that anyone can enjoy. And to put color on gray, crappy walls – Many people do it to transform the street into a museum. The idea is to make it into a good museum.”
ROTI creates colors with shapes (dark areas are simply more detailed). Inspired by tales, the artist distorts childish symbols. The acuteness of his art allows him to oscillate between the different genres. Critics often refer to his drawing abilities, but it is his understanding of architecture that allows him to play with altered landscapes. In his universe, if you expect the unexpected you will always be surprised.
