Urban Wallpaper III
Urban Wallpaper III
URBAN WALLPAPERS is a series painted on ornamental tapestry wallpaper—originally designed to be pasted in the streets. This medium creates a bridge between my street work and my gallery pieces on carpet, while keeping the decorative aesthetic at the core of my practice.
The wallpapers, sourced from France, offer a fresh surface where intricate patterns meet bold portraiture. Some works are hand-painted, others torn, embossed, or detailed in gold—each one unique, just like us. This series brings the richness and texture of my rug art into a smaller, more intimate format, giving collectors a one-of-a-kind piece with depth, detail, and character.

About the artist
About the artist
Mateo is a French artist based in Montreal, best known for his baroque street art and striking painted rugs.
His work fuses urban energy with the heritage of ancient cultures, questioning the place of traditional wisdom in modern society.
Through portraits adorned with ancestral patterns, Mateo builds a bridge to forgotten origins, inviting us to rethink identity in a world pushing for uniformity.
After two decades painting in the streets worldwide, his art now stands alongside legends like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso, celebrating the richness of human diversity.
Murals by Mateo can be found in France, Canada, the US, Spain, Morocco, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico.
