Yves Gallard's Chromatic Wall Joins The Current in Ghent

In September 2026, French artist Yves Gallard unveiled a new mural on Ajuinlei in Ghent, Belgium, as part of The Current, a dynamic mural initiative overseen by the local street-art group Wallin'. This 4-by-5-metre artwork, located next to one of the city’s waterways, represents Gallard's second creation in Ghent, following his earlier work at The Loop tunnel. He describes his artistic focus as an exploration of 'chromatic vibration' within urban settings, and the new mural enhances the canal-side wall with a vibrant array of colors. The mural interacts with its immediate environment, including the water, nearby buildings, and the rhythm of the quay, contributing to its contextual significance. Wallin' facilitates The Current project, allowing artists to express their visual styles while the site evolves.
