On March 3, 2017, singer Christophe Maé unveiled the song “Marcel” dedicated to his second little boy. Its poetic clip plunges us into a childlike world full of dreams. Yet from the very first seconds of the clip, something seems familiar... Could it be a painting by Julien Durix?
An artistic partnership between Christophe Maé and Julien is born. Indeed, the world and characters that have inspired Julien for so long come to life in this world of childlike sweetness into which the singer plunges us.
This gigantic 5-metre fresco features characters that are, for some of us, Proust's madeleines. Chaplin, the colorful Indian, Dali and Marilyn Monroe all come to life to a tender musical accompaniment.
We can't help but appreciate the encounter between these two artists, whose collaboration, based on the work of Julien Durix, takes us back to our childhood dreams.
