Facing the Giant: Three Decades of Dissent in Paris, France

I had a great time in Paris last week! I completed my “Knowledge + Action” mural with my team, stopped by the Obey Clothing flagship store in Paris, and attended the opening of my solo exhibition, “Facing the Giant: Three Decades of Dissent” at Galerie Itinerrance. Special thanks to Obey Clothing ParisGalerie_Itinerrance, my mural team, Jonathan Furlong for documenting, and everyone who came out to support! – Shepard
