Julien Malland, aka Seth Globepainter, paints murals around Paris and other cities showing the depth of children’s innocence and wonder. The locations of his murals are also a part of the artwork.

“Sweetness and innocence from childhood regularly contrasts with the chaotic environments I choose to put them in,” he says.

He connects books with children’s creativity so he often uses them in his work. “We read less and less with the proliferation of screen habits,” Malland explains. “While reading we create our own images suggested by words. The screen makes us lazy and spoils our imagination.”

See some of his portraits below.
