Born in 1989 in the heart of Paris, Alexandre Monteiro, more famously known as Hopare, stands as an ascending luminary in the world of street art. He belongs to this type of artists whose aesthetic experiences are built around human and natural interactions.  His travels around the globe opened his mind to new cultures and traditions and made his artistic personality even more complex. Inseparable from his camera, he never stops seizing the moment to make it everlasting. Hopare definitely prefers working on the street rather than isolated in his studio.

According to him street art – and more specifically freestyle production – is something that makes the artist feel free and a weapon to release the walls from their gray straitjacket. But above all Hopare’s street artwork is meant to make the pedestrians virtually travel.

 Each mural crafted by Hopare is not just a visual feast but an invitation. He seeks not only to capture the gaze of onlookers but to forge a deep, emotional connection.  For the last decade, Hopare has been a prolific artist whether working on murals or canvas. His work has been visible around the globe, in countries like France, Portugal, Cameroon, USA, South Korea and India.
