Streetart: Red Rabbits in the Non-Places

This series documents vibrant rabbit-themed graffiti found in the urban peripheries of Paris—areas often overlooked in the city’s official narrative. French anthropologist Marc Augé coined the term non-lieu (non-place) to describe transitional or anonymous spaces devoid of identity, memory, or relational meaning. These suburban walls, tagged and weathered, embody that concept.

The recurring motif of the red rabbit, both playful and unsettling, animates these “non-places” with uncanny life. Stripped of iconic landmarks, the locations in these images could just as easily belong to Moscow, Berlin, or the outskirts of your own city. They invite a kind of visual disorientation—a puzzle of place where borders blur.

Through this collection, I seek to highlight the strange beauty and narrative potential of these marginal zones. While some may view them as dismal or neglected, I find in them a raw and vivid backdrop for reimagining space, identity, and the role of street art within forgotten geographies.
