Your favourite art collective and mine (with love
here),
En Masse have been getting
busy. In fact they've been blowing up since their giant coming out party during
Nuit Blanche that
February of 2009. More recently, members of the collective have returned to lend their artistic hands to
La Maison Simons' streetwear division
DJAB for their spring 2013 campaign. Given the direction of a Japanime/manga smorgasbord, the artists veered from their characteristic black and white images to throw down a very colourful mural.

Anyone remember the DJAB
Escape Artist series? It was a limited edition series of t-shirts designed by serveral grafitti/lowbrow/street artists back in 2008. Many of these artists have also contributed their talent on En Masse walls. It all comes full circle sometimes...
