Actress and witness to this new wave, she developed her artistic vision in this unprecedented multi-cultural ferment. The photos she took from this era crystallize the collective memory of this movement whose precepts are “PEACE-LOVE-UNITY-AND HAVING FUN”. Franco-Vietnamese of the first generation, Maï LUCAS immediately recognized herself within this movement and became friends with the young musicians, graffiti artists, dancers of all social origins, precursors of this new movement. A major artist of the visual universe of French Hip Hop, Maï LUCAS' photographs have the value of transmissions, they are the trace of her identity in this movement. THE BOOK Between introspection and testimony, the book offers a dive into the intimacy and genesis of French Hip Hop.
