“Street artists, street art, graf­fiti, col­lage, tags, engrav­ing… The­ses words, before under­ground and mar­gin­als, are today even more dif­fi­cult to qual­ify. Street seems to be more and more present into peo­ple mind as a com­mon expo­si­tion place, fad­dish, but acces­si­ble to every­body. How­ever isn’t art present in the street since ages? Ste­fan Eck knows that per­fectly, and even he grinded his style over some walls in the north of France, it is through the ances­tral art of parades, cre­at­ing large metal­lic struc­tures and per­form­ing it in the streets, that he build a strong style and vision. From Bei­jing to New York, he devel­oped a strong and flour­ish­ing uni­verse, eval­u­a­tive, col­or­ful and inspired in a direct rela­tion­ship with his pub­lic.” Jekyll&Hyde mag­a­zine
