Posted on December 6, 2015 by Seb Toussaint

The 2 sons living in this house wanted us to paint the name of their mother on the front of their house. “Wassen” died 10 years ago at the age of 42.

"PAIX" - Acrylic on a 40x40 cm canvas. For sale on my online shop! Link in the bio. - In Nakivale Refugee Settlement in Uganda I asked Baloba to choose a word. He is a Congolese refugee who managed to escape rebels who'd imprisonned him, and came to Uganda to save his and his family's lives. Quite natrually he chose the word "Paix" ("peace" in French). - #art #paix #peace #congolese #letters #artforsale #design #letters #patterns #font #type #acrylic #artwork #canvas #lienzo #contemporaryart #contemporaryurbanart #SebToussaint #arte #painting

Shipping worldwide. - Last May, Shahed, a 15 year old girl from Balata Refugee Camp, Palestine, asked me to paint the word "Humanity" ("Insaniyah" in Arabic) on a wall of her refugee camp. She told me that she lives in a place where humans are segregated, but she wants her wall to be for humanity as a whole. She cares about humanity, regardless of race or religion. I wanted to use this powerful word again and make a print where the word appears both in English and in Arabic. - #artprint #SebToussaint #ShareTheWordProject #Print #humanity #art #arteurbano #patterns #design #arabic #artforsale #pigmentaryprint #limitededitionprints

New 60x60cm canvas. For sale! Contact me if you wish to buy it. "Bharosa" is the Hindi word for "Trust", a word that Sameena chose and which I painted in a slum in Mumbai. I also wrote the name of the slum ("Phule Nagar") on the canvas. Elders of the community told me that Phule Nagar, who lived a century ago, was an early feminist who fought for young girls to go to school and recieve a proper education ! . #canvas #hindi #letters #typo #typography #type #design #art #acrylic #painting #SebToussaint #PhuleNagar #portraits #women #girls #feminism #patterns #trust #artforsale #contemporaryurbanart #contemporaryart #arte #pintura #india #कला #डिज़ाइन #भरोसा
