Plus d'amour

I'm done teaching in the Saint Sulpice neighbourhood for the year, so on Tuesday I took the camera again and hunted for more Amour graffiti on pavements I don't usually use, in nearby streets I'd never walked through. It was a very successful search, even more so than I thought. Not only did I find many more Amour tags, but I also came across an ( Read more... )

I love seeing these photos, can't tell you how much. There's just something so wonderful about having "love" painted all over, and seeing where the person's putting them, how they weather-- I'm entranced :)

I know! I loved wondering around, eyes on the ground, trying to spy the next one. I need to go back and widen the search, I think. (Yes, any excuse to go back and look for more.)

I'm glad that I'm not the only one they touch.

These are charming. Did you ever figure out what the Amour graffiti was supposed to signify?

fan_elune June 30 2006, 00:36:28 UTC

Well. I keep toying back and forth with the idea of printing a poster with some of those, calling out to their author, and leaving an email address. Because I want to know.

But on the other hand, it's nice not to know, and to simply imagine.

Ever thought of leaving your own graffiti near one of them? To make HIM/HER wonder? ;-)

I will be there for you to ask me anything about the neighbourhood you want to know. When you're going to set a fic there, I mean.

And I LOVE YOU.

(le sigh) Can I come to visit you? Will you take me to geoff's bookstore? Can I pet the cat?
Can I buy books in french even though I dont know French?

fan_elune June 30 2006, 01:53:58 UTC

Yes to all of the above.

Well, maybe not the cat part. Only if we're very lucky and he's hanging around again.

I was going to ask what these graffitis were, if it was some kind of work of art. But it seems that you don't know. How long since you started to see them in the streets ?
