New Public Geometric Sculptures by David Mesguich
David Mesguich (previously) is a street artist who focuses on placing large-scale geometric sculptures in public spaces around Belgium, France and Poland. Recently, his work has focused on the difficult journey of refugees in Europe. His series STATELESS includes two carved portraits of refugees made of colorful plastic that were placed in the suburbs of Paris in late 2015. For the urban art festival Mister Freeze in Toulouse during the same year he constructed the piece SANTA EUROPA, a feminine portrait of Europe and its many contradictions towards those trying to relocate within its borders.
His latest sculpture LUCIE was built in Poznan, Poland and focuses on his 4-year-old daughter. The 32-foot sculpture is a way for the artist to honor his daughter while also providing inspirations to children and adults alike. You can see more of Mesguich’s public works on his Behance and Facebook.
