Paris Metro To Donate Sneaker Graffiti Masterpiece
Parisian Metro commuters were blessed with a seriously beautiful slice of heaven this morning, as a blazing hot bunsen burner depicting an insanely accurate profile portrait of the original peeled out of the tunnels and onto the platform. How this was done is a mystery at this point, it's almost as though the artist who created this work was gifted with the hand of Christ. The only clue left was a subtle yet stunning #AirMaxPlus sign-off down below.
Clearly moved by the pristine panel, one commuter was quoted as saying, 'This is simply magnifique. To pay homage to such an icon in such a culturally relevant forum is pure genius. I think I may cry now, please leave me in peace.' Another commuter marvelled at the work: 'The fade... OMG, the fade. Is this perfection? Today I will call in sick and ride this metallic serpent up and down and round and round the lines until she is put to sleep.' Paris Metro officials have put out a statement saying that they're considering taking the carriage out of commission and donating it to The Musée National d'Art Moderne.
