SEETIES Among his various photographic projects, there is a series in particular that we love and that is touring the world. Lamadieu Thomas aka Roots Art (born in 1985 in Avignon, France) shows us a different and funny perception of urban architecture. Imagination has no boundaries and in that piece of sky, cut by buildings, in the middle of an intersection of a city, he sees odd characters: a bearded man, a street artist, a seductive woman, a cat, an owl, etc…
He calls it “Sky Art” and he’s right: the sky is his inspiration and also his “canvas” which, framed by buildings, represents always different geometric figures; Lamadieu photographs them and then – (using the Microsoft Paint application; yes, instead of Photoshop, some “old school”) – fills these spaces with drawings of quirky characters in search of their little piece of sky. Here are some (click to make the photos bigger and see the Gallery):

Sognatrice ad occhi aperti dal 9 giugno 1987, freelance web editor e progettista culturale. Vagando tra i vicoli di Barcelona, ho immaginato e poi fondato CCT-SeeCity (www.cct-seecity.com), web guidezine che dal 2009 racconta luoghi e persone attraverso una community globale di creativə, un progetto editoriale indipendente e collaborativo dal quale è nato poi CCT studio – Communication for Culture & Territory (www.cct.world). Con CCT, mi occupo di comunicazione per cultura e territorio e di rigenerazione a base culturale attraverso la narrazione, la progettazione e l’organizzazione di eventi. Nel lavoro e nella vita, credo che siano i dettagli a fare la differenza e che diverso sia bello! Nella vita e nel lavoro, cerco di applicare idee e valori del femminismo intersezionale.
