Sara Chelou is an active witness to the beginnings of street art in France. In the 90s, in Paris, she started to paint outside the walls, as an underground Artist, in the industrial cathedrals and the libertarian wastelands.
Her work is both plastic and experimental, questioning the role of the Artist in the city but also her place in society.
As a member of the first artistic groups considered experimental at the time, she participated in the creation of the first urban art events and the first European festivals on the same subject (such as in Budapest, Hungary), and then took her Art to disused industrial wastelands before moving on to various Parisian studios.
For her way of painting in the city, she plays with references from American pop culture with Keith Haring, Warhol, Lichtenstein, and graffiti culture from everywhere and elsewhere. Sara Chelou also takes a committed look at our times. Her urban poetry accompanies us and her messages slow down our steps!
From street Art to contemporary Art through Pop Art, she is an artist who participates in the current artistic renewal.
In her paintings, she speaks of a graphic culture and an era where Art expresses itself and oscillates between the forbidden and the playful, leaves the studio to confront society in the streets and in the cities, reflects the world and its tensions with different influences, a form of fusion between citizen reflection, geek culture, and graffiti.
