Rétro Gamin

📍 Tourcoing, France – for BIAM Festival, powered by Le Collectif Renart

This bold and nostalgic mural by Le Mec Blasé is more than just street art, it’s a personal tribute. The yellow-skinned, Ash Ketchum-inspired character grips a giant NES Zapper, with a classic NES console strapped to his back. The cartridge? Duck Hunt, the very first video game the artist ever played.

With its vibrant colors, dynamic pose, and comic-style attitude, the mural fuses childhood memories with urban energy. It’s a love letter to gaming’s early days and a powerful reminder of how personal icons can become public art.
