Stunning Photos Of Colorful Street Art In A Dilapidated Building In Paris





Photographer HBA_Jijo captured over 370 photos of amazing street art housed in a dilapidated building in Paris that is about to be demolished.



Gallery owner Mehdi Ben Cheikh, who started the project titled ‘Tour Paris 13’, said “I really wanted the artist to intervene on a whole space. I didn’t want the spectators to come and look at art. I wanted the spectators to come and enter an art work... which means there are things everywhere – we enter a room, and have to turn around in every direction to understand the surroundings.”



With their bold and colorful designs that leap off the walls and ceilings, the incredible pictures make for a visually arresting sight.



The exhibition is free and open to the public, and visitors only have until 31 October to admire the stunning artwork before the building is torn down.
