Artwork location: France

In this canvas from the triptych "Generation 2000" by CARO GRAFFITI, the artist captures the essence of contemporary youth through a scene that is both playful and symbolic. In the foreground is a young girl, representative of the generation born at the turn of the millennium, who sports a balloon of popping gum in her mouth. This chewing gum, with its bright color and elastic texture, evokes the carefree and playful characteristics of childhood, as well as the attachment to pop culture symbols.

The young girl looks at the world around her with amazed eyes, while continuing to chew her gum. This captivating image embodies the idea that today's youth juggle innocence and the reality of the world around them. Like the three wise monkeys, who cover their eyes, ears and mouth, this painting reminds us that sometimes it is necessary to take a step back to better understand the world around us.

The juxtaposition of the balloon of gum in the girl's mouth with her curious expression suggests that despite the distractions and pleasures of modern life, youth still keeps a keen eye on the events unfolding around them. “Generation 2000” invites us to reflect on how today's youth interpret and respond to the complexities of the contemporary world while maintaining their own brilliance and optimism.

Thus, this painting invites us to meditate on the notion of innocence, curiosity and perception of today's youth, while reminding us that, like the three monkeys of wisdom, it is sometimes necessary to see, hear and speak wisely to better understand the world around us, even as we enjoy life's little pleasures like popping gum.

Caro Graffiti, Génération 2000 #3
France  • 1991

Presentation

Self-taught, drawing has been part of Carole Bélurier Aka Caro Graffiti's life since her earliest childhood. In 2015 she became a tattoo artist for the joy of creating a work on a person who would wear her all her life. Loving to test different artistic practices, she began graffiti in 2019. It is a revelation for the artist who, more than ever with the Covid crisis, finds real personal fulfillment and a means of creating social ties thanks to this art. Since then, she has had exhibitions in France and abroad. In Paris she is represented by Galry and begins to mark the walls of the city with her creations. The graffiti artist finds her inspiration both in a film, those of Tim Burton for example, whose universe she particularly likes, but also in the detour of a photo, by crossing people in the street, or by listening to a conversation... Her work is cheerful, colorful and makes us travel!
