Jaune is one part satirist and another part artists, utilizing tiny uniformed garbage men and construction workers to advocate for more social awareness. The people who keep our streets clean and lights on, the people in the background that are often invisible, but we rely on to keep a polished society running. Jaune paints and constructs little worlds of chaos and disruption for the guys in yellow reflective vests to run amok. He creates beauty out of the mundane and wields creativity as a powerful tool for making the best out of the worst.
