Biography
Photo credits : © Sylvain Lefeuvre
Christian Guémy known as C215 is born in 1973.
Lives & works in Paris, France.
Christian Guémy aka C215, is a French urban artist from Paris who has been described as “the French equivalent of Banksy”.
He mainly uses stencils to create his art. His work consists mostly of portraits of people and animals. C215 generally depicts subjects such as beggars, the homeless, refugees, street children and the elderly. The aim of this selection is to highlight those whom society has neglected.
Cats are also often represented in his work.
Some of his creations appear in the Far Cry 4 video game, making him the first virtual urban artist in history.
