“Tree of Life”

📍 Summerhill

Our first Summerhill mural is a restoration of an old mural painted in 2013 by Madrid-based artist, 3ttman. 3ttman made his second trip from Madrid to Summerhill in 2019 to update his 2013 mural, a rare occurrence. The impermanent nature of street art makes this restoration quite special. The eye-catching bold shades and creatively quirky characters now shine anew.

Louis Lambert is 3TTMAN, or Trois Têtes Man. As a key presence in the contemporary urban art scene in Madrid, he has formed an aesthetic combining the punk heritage of graffiti, its do-it-yourself, by any means necessary attitude, with a style showing a strong influence of both vernacular, and popular religious art. Working on a plethora of surfaces (from billposters to self-laid concrete), and utilising a myriad of techniques (from ceramics to mosaics), Lambert’s production purposefully blurs the boundary between art and craft, challenging prevailing conceptions of ‘correct’ practice in both the fine and public-art worlds.
