Dubbed “the new Banksy,” Imbue doesn’t just write his name on walls.
A provocative and evil spirit, the street artist diverts advertisements or army recruitment posters and even goes so far as to introduce a mischievous Snow White into the aisles of a Disney store. Playing with symbols, he melts a bottle of Coca Cola into the body of the Virgin Mary, diverting religious and popular iconography to give them a new meaning.
In 2008, he installed powdered sugar vending machines, spreading “cocaine” and “heroin” on Brighton Pier, without worrying, questioning the public and the authorities about the drugs found on every street corner. “Source des pistes TV ARTE”
