Artwork location: France
In this vibrant piece, Willis reimagines the ancient myth of Cupid, the god of love, infusing it with a resolutely contemporary aesthetic. The winged child, bow drawn, is poised to release an arrow of love—a universal symbol of desire, passion, and human vulnerability.
Set against a bold yellow background splashed with dynamic white projections, Cupid's silhouette stands out with striking clarity. The green wings, detailed and organic, contrast sharply with the black-and-white graphic treatment of the body, creating a rich interplay of textures and materials. Suspended in mid-air, the figure's almost choreographic pose captures the movement in flight, heightening the dramatic intensity of the gesture.
The combined use of stencil, acrylic paint, and spray paint reflects the artist's signature style: unapologetically urban, at the crossroads of classical art and street art. The black “W" in the lower right corner affirms the work's identity and authorship.
With "The Flight of love", Willis offers a bold reinterpretation of the mythological figure, blending love, tension, and urban energy into a composition that is as pop as it is poetic.

Presentation
Originally from Savoie, French artist Willis discovered his calling at a very young age. At just 9 years old, he joined the legendary Bassens Cartoon Studio, laying the foundations for an artistic journey driven by meaning and emotion.
His commitment goes far beyond aesthetics: he uses his art as a vehicle for solidarity. Deeply affected by illness within his family—a sister living with endometriosis and relatives battling breast cancer—he creates works imbued with hope and resilience. In 2024, one of his pieces was sold for €1,000 at a Project Venus charity auction benefiting the French Breast Cancer League.
But Willis's heart beats even stronger when it comes to childhood and dreams. Just a month later, he teamed up with Fred Noleemeet on the Champs-Élysées to fulfill the wish of a young girl with leukemia, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Through the magic of his paintbrushes, he etched an unforgettable memory into the heart of this little warrior.
In the world of street art, Willis has found his voice—a voice that speaks through vibrant colors, bold forms, and diverse mediums: large-scale murals, repurposed electrical boxes, sculptures, and meticulous stencils. Each piece is a manifesto, a visual ode to love, justice, and hope.
Guided by passion and altruism, Willis Street embodies the power of engaged art—art that touches lives, heals wounds, and inspires action. A reminder, too, that each of us can choose to follow our own path—with heart.
