Fafi, the French Graffiti Artist

 

Nostalgic erupts in me, every so often, but I do not like having these feelings as well. My Fafi Essay/presentation that I did when I was at Cal State LA. Writing in English is already hard for me, especially since, I have a learning processor disorder and in French it is even harder, even though I do speak it. However, as I constantly struggle, I do what I can. Above, was a mini website essay that I did about Fafi on wikispaces (it doesn't exist anymore) on my French professor's account during that time. He had all of his students write an essay in website form about certain French people that are/were in our industry that we were majoring. As, you can tell I majored in Art with a specification in Communication Art (graphic design). Durning that time, if you were not an engineer major, you did not have homework assignments that had you creating website essays to be graded on. However, I am grateful that many of the professors of Cal State LA had foresight to have their students to do this.

Fafi L’artiste Française de graffiti

Above here you can look at while you enjoy my Fafi Essay/presentation that I did when I was at Cal State LA for my French class at that time. Please, note that this presentation is ALL in French with some possibility of grammatical errors, for my Canadian and European followers. For my followers at home (American) and English speaking followers this essay presentation talks about Fafi's impact in the art graffiti world and her M.A.C collaboration she did in the late 2000's. Her art expresses how "stereotypes of women" are giving visibility in a different way. I was fortunate enough to see her exhibit when it was at the GalleryNucleus.
