Hopare

Born in 1989, Alexandre Monteiro Aka Hopare is an increasing figure in the Street Art scene based in Paris. He discovered street art around the age of 12 by falling on an old factory covered with graffiti. He then started his very first illegal graffiti. In 2005, when he was in college, he was enormously influenced by his art teacher who was none other than Shaka, a famous French street artist. Hopare belongs to this type of artists whose aesthetic experiences are built Around human and natural interactions. In other words, Hopare is an artist turned to the world. His trips around the globe opened his mind to new cultures and traditions and made his artistic personality even more complex. Inseparable from his camera, he keeps grasping the moment to make him eternal.
