The artist was in attendance, sharing insights about his work, which often features an individual within the crowd, a theme inspired by the tragic Charlie Hebdo attack.

Gaëtan's crowd paintings illustrate how we are stronger together in love and friendship, fighting against racism and terrorism, and happier in our daily lives when we work together.
