Lek and Sowat collaborated once again for “S̶t̶r̶e̶e̶t̶ ART” as part of Hip Opsession. Lek and Sowat collaborated with a group of artists such as Outsider, Wxyz, Persu, Sebastien Preschoux, Kan, Rayzin, Kazy and the Postman Quartet. We were able to get an amazing set of pictures taken by Pierre Doucin and Sowat. The exhibition will be on view till March 8th in Nantes, France. We suggest you see these impressive installations in person before they are taken down.
