SYMBOLIC MURALS AROUND THE WORLD
Across Asia, Europe and Africa, I create visual statements that transform places into stories.
What defines my work? An universal symbol: the hand!
Whether inspired by the gestures of Apsaras in Cambodia or sacred mudras from India, hands become the language through which I express identity, emotions and movement.

I'm Chifumi
A french muralist painting stories on walls arounds the world.
Internationally renowned artist, Chifumi, has become most well-known for his majestic and intricate large-scale murals that are scattered across the globe. His unique style of art blends mythological stories, ethnic paterns and hands signs communications. His passion for using his creative voice to raise awareness for important societal and environmental issues has also built him a reputation for being an engaged artist, driven by a desire make an impact.
Born in France, Chifumi moved to Cambodia after he graduated from art school; a move that sparked a lifelong fascination with asian ancient heritage and mythology. It is his passion for art in public spaces that bring him into the Cambodia Urban Art Festival; since 2015 he organize yearly the first and major event around street creativity and push young local artists to express themselves.
Over the course of a year, he had created impactful murals in far-reaching places such as Cambodia, California, Madagascar, India, France, Denmark, Croatia, Thailand, Nepal and Italy.
Only murals? Not Quite!
Beyong murals, Chifumi is also a screenprinter and an explorer of Augmented Reality.
When not painting walls, he crafts hand-pulled prints in limited editions and experiment with digital layers that bring his work to life through mobile interaction.
From traditional techniques to immersives formats, his art extends across mediums. But always carries the same signature: the hand as a symbol.
Screenprinting
His prints are hand-pulled, produced in limited editions, and often feature the same visual language as his murals: expressive hands, symbolic gestures, and bold forms rooted in cultural aesthetics.
Each silkscreen is created using traditional techniques — layered ink, tactile paper, numbered and signed — offering collectors a fragment of his street work in a collectible, gallery-ready format.
Augmented Reality
By blending physical murals with digital motion, he creates hybrid artworks that come alive through your smartphone.
Hands that move, gestures that evolve, stories that reveal themselves interactively — AR becomes a new space where street art meets animation, and the viewer becomes part of the experience.
