Le Dragon / Zësar Bahamonte

Rue du Rossignol, 14 - 7000 Mons

Zesar Bahamonte was born on the outskirts of Seville, Spain. At the age of 19, he moved to the capital, where he not only studied at the Seville School of Art, but also became involved in social and cultural DIY movements.

It was an approach that would later define him as an artist. After a year in Barcelona, where he rekindled his love of street painting, he moved to Montevideo, Uruguay. There he developed as a professional muralist, took part in several street art festivals, exhibited in galleries and painted live alongside various musicians (from a flamenco peña to an electronic music group) and, above all, continued to paint in the streets where he pursued his quest for style and technique.

Zesar has already given us the pleasure of creating the great Saint-Georges fresco in the rue du Grand Jour. So it was only natural that we invited Zesar to create his own version of the dragon. Because what would Saint-Georges be without the dragon?
