Work of Hopare, Madrid, October 2018
This well-wrapped woman is the work of Paris-based street artist, Alexandre Monteiro, aka Hopare. His pieces often feature colourful faces, and his previous work experience in interior architecture makes its mark in his strong use of lines.
I always find his work eye-catching and enjoyable, and was pleased to find this work on a shutter in the interior courtyard of La Tabacalera in Madrid.
Here is another piece, that I spotted in Barcelona let year.
