Miss LI biography
TIK: To life, for love, art in the city, poetry of the rebellion - “The poet of the city and the artist in the city, Miss. TIC is a pioneer of urban art and the French stencil movement. This is a real literary, plastic, social and philosophical project, which she writes on our walls with aerosol ink. She expresses her anger, her desires, her humor, her thirst for justice through a variety of practice, within the framework of which the street to the end will remain a privileged place of the way of expression, exhibitions and public education.
Intimate and highly political, its work radiates the atmosphere of rebellion. Miss Tick, which disappeared in May at the age of 66, occupies a central place in the history of art in the process of writing, which is designed to contribute to this first monograph and posthumous exhibition. What could be more eloquent than the papal palace for those who have never ceased to glorify the poetic power of this place, to defend the interests of the people over the elite, challenge the established order and violate it?
Perhaps the last provocation, the last neglect of history and power in the place of male, political, religious and military force, which for centuries has become a symbol of culture, spectacle and holiday. ” The poet and artist, she is an important figure in urban art. On the walls and canvases, she expresses her rage, her desires and a constant struggle for freedom.
The daughter of the Tunisian worker-immigrant and the Norman mother from peasant origin, Miss Tick spent her childhood in the Mount of Paris, then in HLM in Orly, in the Parisian region. At the age of 10, she experienced a car accident, which cost her mother’s life, brother and grandmother and left her with her lifelong disability. Meanwhile, she fled for two years on the west coast of the United States, where she joined the punk scene, and then traveled a lot in Central America and Southeast Asia.
Returning to Paris, Miss. Tick borrows his pseudonym from the witch's character from the adventures of Scrooge and chooses a stencil as a means of expression. At night, often lonely and anonymous for a long time, the artist forms his legend in the city, risking often to be in custody in the police - before finally making a choice in favor of the legality of the year. Miss Tick died on May 22.
She left behind a popular work that underlies the history of art, which is in the process of writing, which, more than ever, reflects the shocks that our society is experiencing. His works were exhibited at numerous personal and group exhibitions in France, Spain, Italy and Germany, and are also the subject of numerous publications.
