Monumental Joyful Murals by Ella & Pitr Fill Urban Rooftops and Fields

Known for their monumental murals, which span entire public squares, rooftops, playing fields, and more, Ella & Pitr bring eccentric joy to urban spaces. The artists often represent people from historically marginalized groups, including refugees and the elderly. Sometimes laughing, other times sleeping or passing the time in quietude, these giant figures curl around fountains and wedge into parking areas in an expression of joy, resilience, and individuality.

The duo are slated for an exhibition at Galerie Jonathan Roze in Rennes, France, titled Points de Suspension. Explore more on Instagram.
