In 2018, Jean was commissioned to create a floor-to-ceiling wall mural for a restaurant in Geneva, Switzerland. After his first two trips to begin work on the project, the first stage of the mural was completed.
The faces may look familiar. That's because it's a recreation of a scene from a movie called Allied! Produced in 2016 and starring Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard

Jean explains the creative vision behind the mural: “I decided to paint recreations of famous movie scenes to illustrate the different stages of attraction and romance. In this first scene, the characters have just met; in the next scene, the characters are closer to each other, in the third they are holding hands, and finally, in the fourth and final painting, you can see the kiss that seals the romance between the two.

“I’m constructing the paintings to make it look like each of these figures is sitting in the restaurant with customers.”

We can't wait to see the next stages of the mural and find out what famous names will be featured and what movie scene will be painted next!
