@gedeonm People should really go to his website. It’s adorable. He has the potholes talk for him.#Art #MastoArt #HandMade https://www.upworthy.com/french-artist-makes-mosaics-out-of-potholes

@gedeonm I just came by two pieces of his work in zagreb. They are lovely dots of color on the grey street.

Small tiles in white and gold forming a mosaic in a pothole on the street. On two tiles there is text written: "Emenem" and "Nazovi Svoju Mamu"

@gedeonm Ememem has done art near where I live! I had to track it down again because I couldn’t remember exactly where I’d seen it, and it’s discreet.

Closer view of tile art by Ememem, embedded in the sidewalk around a tree. The artist’s name is visible in tiles at the upper-left. Paris, Batignolles neighborhood.

wat ’n idee 👍

heb ergens gezien dat iemand op plekjes waar stukjes uit muren weg zijn, er met egoblokjes weer ‘hele’ panden gemaakt worden
zijn kleine objecten , kleurrijk, grappig

@gedeonm See also this done with lego: https://www.janvormann.com/testbild/dispatchwork/

@joachim I’ve seen that before but honestly it doesn’t move or inspire me like the other does. It seems haphazard, inappropriate for the context and feels consumer compared. Could just be me.

@gedeonm The mosaics certainly look more durable. Lego's not really designed to withstand the elements. My kids loved finding some though. And it's something everyone can participate in, unlike the mosaics.

Oh I'd love to see that on the streets here!

@gedeonm Well that’s hard word for a retired person. Imagine hunched on your knees, bending down to fix those tiles!

@gedeonm That's some vandalism I can get behind

@gedeonm Absolutely brilliant - and probably lasts a while too which a lot of street art doesn’t 💖
