Nobody knows the countless battles you fought and won. With grace, courage and never losing that electrifying spark in your soul. Your perseverance made true miracles happen. True elegance and love impersonated. What an inspiration you are. Miss you deeply. ✨ Marie-Dominique

Happy birthday father. Your magic is unmatched. Your imagination transcends space and time. Forever in the hearts of countless people who witnessed your hypnotic talent and relentless quest for authencity. No matter what life has put you through you never lost the sense of wonder and curiosity. Unforgetable. So happy we had the chance to spend few years together before you flew off into eternity 14 years ago. Miss the divine rascal you were. 🍀 Marie-Dominique

Looking back at the future ✨ In front of a mural painted in 2006 with @zenkone Thanks to @noetwo and @zenoyone for pimping my coat during Meeting of styles 2005. Time flies, memories don’t.🍀
Fissures and flaws. Surface cracks and deep scars. Tangible pangs: Our world is riddled with them. It hints at breaking, splitting, snapping, but this giant rock never caves to its torment. This is an homage to our home and the infinite stone it’s yielded us. I’ve photographed these so-called defects all over the world, then magnified and painted them somewhere else on the planet. This is a form of gratitude, announcing there’s glory in imperfection, triumph in pain and echoed connections everywhere. The sixth wall in the series is called “No pressure, no diamonds” Last months the world and people went crazy. So it was time for an antidote. A colourful and vibrant expression of a desire for life. No matter the weather it’s up to us to learn and dance in the rain. This wall is also an hommage to the Hip-Hop culture, a culture risen out of pressure just like jazz and blues….. those artforms are not just genres….. they are socio-hystorical movements that document the lives of countless people in any kind of struglle… they are also a manifestation of commitment, discipline and creativity. With this wall @digitaldoes and myself wanted to translate that energy and vibrance into our painting. We wanted to make something fresh. get fresh The term “fresh” as it is used here originates from the early 1980’s Hip-Hop/Breakdance/graffiti culture. For lack of better words it means “awe inspiringly original”. To, “get fresh” or “getfresh,” is the act of doing something fresh, something never done before and done in a way that radiates energy and life. The crack in the wall was photographed in the street where @jr and myself made a mural in Paris. Every new place where I paint gives me a new present, as if I’m granted unepxected gifts permanently to keep sharing this energy. Cracks and scars everywhere. Beauty to share anywhere. Let’s dance in the rain. Thanks again to @nansschonkeren for you relentless support and thanks to @digitaldoes for your amazingly powerful contribution to the project. And thanks to @streetartantwerp for all your assistance and help. We ll be back soon! Keep dancing #graffiti #antwerp #hiphop #culture #history

‘HUMAIN’ Fissures and flaws. Surface cracks and deep scars. Tangible pangs: Our world is riddled with them. It hints at breaking, splitting, snapping, but this giant rock never caves to its torment. This is an homage to our home and the infinite stone it’s yielded us. I’ve photographed these so-called defects all over the world, then magnified and painted them somewhere else on the planet. This is a form of gratitude, announcing there’s glory in imperfection, triumph in pain and echoed connections everywhere. This wall was a demand of King Philippe in collaboration with @bozarbrussels. They gave me total artistic freedom, as it should be. The 6th wall in the series is named “HUMAIN”. It’s 800m2 (40m-20m) The hand symbolizes creation, connection, contact and unity. Human contact implies responsibility. We are responsible for each other, especially now. This wall symbolizes our individual but also our historical responsibility. The crack on this wall was shot on a statue of king Leopold II. The copper background refers to the resource that Belgium was mining heavily during the colonisation. The hand explicitly refers to the inhumane practice of Belgian officials cutting civilians hands off whenever they resisted working in the camps. Besides many other atrocities that went on numbers show that approximately 18 million people were killed during the occupation, many millions had their hands chopped off. It is a proper time to acknowledge the inhumain practices and horrific past and to consider a way of reparation for the inconceivable amount of pain and trauma caused by our nation. The time to speak and listen to each other is NOW. Let’s unite and avoid repeating the same neglectful and inhumane practices of the past. Each one teach one🍀 My gratitude goes out to @nansschonkeren ✨ without you none of this would have happened. Endless respect and love. Also thanks to @bozarbrussels for making it happen with us. And last but not least thanks to the city of Antwerp for allowing this symbol of unity to grace our city. @stad_antwerpen #bozart #antwerp #reparation #leopold2 #colonisation #unity #corona #love #art # graffiti #amok
‘If it is true That God is God And true That the Human is Human We still have hope That God as a Human Is still amongst Humans And each day Humans become Gods again’ By Julien Schoenaerts painted this wall in the prison of Oudenaarde in Belgium. Did it to empower the mission of Hans Claus, the prison warden, who for decades has been fighting to humanize conditions for long term inmates. Check his program called “rescaled”. www.rescaled.org The crack painted on this wall was photographed in ROME…. the very start of what we call our civilization….. One love again to @nansschonkeren for all support. Pics by @filipvanroe and myself. Thanks to @jetsetari for the great drone work ✨ met dank aan FOD justitie en DG EPI/Cellmade @janefonda @jr @kimkardashian #prisonreform #justice #jayz #janefonda #kimkardashian #massiveattack
