piroud's art is most at home on city streets, unashamedly amusing passersby... from his ephemeral seats that recondition the trunks of chopped-down trees (some of which have lasted up to two years before being removed), to the heart-shaped filters he applies to traffic lights, piroud is not afraid of creating amusing art. a favourite piece is the tennis court he painted onto a neighbouring roof (above). he is, he says, attempting to "put fiction in reality" in his pursuit of making "contemporary art about the city". more of his work is at starnocity.com.
