My name is AL, I'm an 34 years old artist from Montpellier in France, and I create black and white characters that I paint in different media, mainly in the public space, in France or abroad. This kind of Urban paintings is leading to connexions with the population in the area, to offer ideas and to bring a new look at the world around us, or simply trigger emotions !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet you! And for this time, i want especially you to help me make my project possible!
The VAGABONDAGES project was set up in 2015 in France and Switzerland, and offered to individuals for welcoming me to their address to make a painting, a project built together. It enabled the realization of 16 works in various media and scattered locations, but most encounters, discoveries and unforgettable memories.

The 2016 VAGABONDAGES was in the Balkans, no specific route was planned for the start, just a first step in Osijek, in eastern Croatia. Subsequently, projects and destinations falled into places with meetings in the field, or proposals via the facebook'event page, or by private message through my profile.

Finally, i've visited 8 countries, met so many people, create new friendships, and 8 paintings by the way. You can find all the stories on my facebook page!

So, this year, i would like to focus on East Europa, from Praha to Moscow, passing by Berlin, Poland, Lituania, Lettonia, Estonia and Russia. And i need YOU to help me building this project. I need your experiences, your stories, your Culture and History, and maybe your faces too, to create a new painting in every cities i go.

So please contact me if you need more informations, and let's build together this new edition of "Vagabondages"!
