Street Art Rue de la Mare

Rue de la Mare serves as a focal point for the evolving street art scene in Belleville, a neighborhood defined by its history as a nineteenth-century working-class refuge. The street is marked by a concentration of large-scale, curated murals that contrast with the more spontaneous, ephemeral graffiti found elsewhere in the district. It hosts enduring works by established figures like Jérôme Mesnager, whose signature white silhouettes appear throughout the area, including a weightless figure suspended mid-air beneath a parking sign on this street.
