Street Artist Adele Renault
By Adele Renault in Stavelot, Belgium.
Adele Renault: Pigeons always fly home. This one is perched up on a hill next to a 100 year old beech, visible from the old rail road and the road below. Practically in my old high school’s backyard and a 2 miles flight to my parents home. Had to be a pigeon when I first saw the wall. Thanks to the Cultural center of Stavelot for making this happen.
Adele Renault: Often when I paint a pigeon mural in the US, people say “oh look she’s painting an eagle.” And now when painting a pigeon in Belgium several people stopped by and said “oh is she painting the Belgian flag?”. Why are people so obsessed with patriotism? Hopefully it can just be art or just a pigeon to brighten someone’s day.
