Sobekcis Completes 17.3-Metre Abstract Mural for Walls&Love 2026 in Valence
In Valence, France, the Serbian art duo Sobekcis has just finished a massive mural measuring 17.3 by 10.5 meters. This piece was created for the Walls&Love festival set for 2026 and is positioned at 1 rue Juiverie, near the Hôtel de Ville. The festival aims to add permanent murals around the city. The artwork showcases a mix of black-and-white forms accented by bright colors. Sobekcis describes their unique approach, starting with spontaneous gestures that they later organize to complement the building’s lines. They worked from August 28 to September 3 during the festival, which lasted from August 22 to September 13. They thanked Vincent, Jerc, Alizée, and Delphine, along with the local community for their warm welcome. The result is a striking abstraction that interacts with the city’s architecture.
