Monkey Bird is the association of two French artists, who have chosen to transcribe social themes into wall fables, thanks to the representation of totem animals with elaborate symbolism.

Their inspiration is mainly drawn from sacred or lyrical works such as illuminations, stained glass, architectural ornamentation but also from the fantastic illustrations of the "Arts and Crafts" period or Japanese prints.

The two artists began working in the street before taking over the walls of museums and institutions. They do not abandon their first place of expression and multiply the techniques and the plastic experiments according to the selected space: stencils, engravings, linocuts, research of subtractions of the matter, drawings, cuttings, or posters in glass canvas. Artists with a striking graphic originality, they feed the international urban landscape with the poetry of their works.
