| King Of The Road | Houston, Texas, USA, 2022 for @streetartmankind Painted a #mural with the image of this #young gentleman by the perfect #name of Houston Atlee in #Houston #Texas in fall of 2022. I had 8 days to #paint one side of the 11 story tall Scanlan #building. The train tracks next to the building immediately caught my attention. Might be just me, the German dude, but I absolutely didn’t expect a metro rail in the city center of a otherwise very car and oil friendly city. These tracks ended up influencing this mural. Thought a lot about the concept of who is owning the #streets and the #city and than I tried to reverse the perspective and give a real representation of the most vulnerable on the streets, #pedestrians and obviously #cyclists , specially #kids. I could have not asked for a better model. Houston, you are going #places, you are #smart, #strong and so well-behaved! Nothing but love from me to you and your #family! Thanks for putting everything together streetartmankind and big shout out to the homie @ghose_one for all the technical support and help drone shots by @superkant #painting #streetart #muralart #spraypaint #art #urbanart #artwork #wallart #spraypaint #streetarteverywhere #wallpainting #travel #artinthestreets

| Voor Sanda | Leuven, Belgium, 2022 Sanda was killed this day, four years ago. @kuleuven @leuven organized by my folks @allaboutth1ngs #justiceforsandadia allaboutthings #sandadia #homage #casemaclaim #leuven #streetartdaily #portraitart

Be A Mensch With the pressure of creating a solo show, you have to know what you wish to express. I am so used to create murals on the spot, in different settings, different countries, all while being judged and looked at by bystanders and visitors, fans and neighbors. Working in the studio has become really challenging and very different and lonely at times. The similarities in both my indoor and outdoor works, is that I wish to create not only a canvas or a mural, but a chance for the viewer to tell their very own story, with my paintings as a source of inspiration. The topic I chose for my current canvases is Being A Mensch. A Mensch, is someone with a noble character, a person of dignity and a sense of responsibility. A Mensch is someone, I desire to be. A Mensch is what I want all my canvases to represent. I painted all eleven canvases with the intent to show what being a Mensch means to me. Stay humble, yours truly, Case Thank you very much @kirkgallery

| Teen Spirit | Seyssinet-Pariset, France, 2022 for @grenoblestreetartfest Painted this 42,5 meter long wall with Samira in 9 days. This Gymnasium is one of the busiest I have ever seen. The basketball court was basically always in use and the constant sound of dribbling made the perfect background noise. I used to play basketball in my teenage years up until Graffiti became my main interest. Still my favorite! Team building sports have the ability to bring together all sorts of folks with the most different backgrounds and skills and that‘s universal. Beautiful to participate and to watch. My special thanks go out to Amado, Elyan and Emiland, thanks for letting me take pictures and paint you. Thanks @jeromecatz for the invite and @mauddersarkissian for planning this project. #case_maclaim #seyssinetpariset #streetartfestival #streetartgrenoble #basketball #3x3

Miami, USA, 2021 for @manapublicarts and @thebushwickcollective #ArtBasel21 #Miami #Downtown #33131 #case_maclaim I met Caleb and Anthony, the brothers #fromdifferentmothers while I was in Saint Louis. I loved how they would talk to each other and their younger sister. Very respectful and caring. Family, no matter biological, chosen or given is precious. Protect the ones you love and care. Wishing all of you a calm and healthy last weeks of yet another crazy year. Special thanks to Christina and Brian, glad we met you and glad you take care of these and other wonderful children. Thank you @andyryanflores for this dope video and thanks to #bushwickcollective for always taking care.

| Carnival Is Canceled | Aalborg, Danemark, 2020 for @kirkgallery as part of their “Out In The Open” project. #case_maclaim #outintheopen #mural #ThrowbackThursday Aalborg was the first city Samira and me have traveled to after the first German shutdown. The cities famous and traditional carnival had been canceled and the travel ban was lifted the day prior to our arrival. We pretty much kept traveling while working ever since, for most parts by car. There is no one I’d rather be together 24/7. It’s Samira’s birthday today, so I feel extra grateful for her. To know her, means to love her! My forever most favorite, beautiful face to paint #wontstopcantstop #Samira

I ORA I Tahiti, French Polynesia, 2019 I am currently in Mexico and went on a boat ride with friends yesterday. It just reminded me of the time when @sarahroopinia took us on a boat trip after we finished the murals for @onoutahiti and then it also reminded me that I have never shared the final fotos of the wall I painted. My model and talent for this one was Matahi from @matahichungshing Thank you so much Sara, Sara‘s family, Matahi and the team. Samira and me loved every minute! #onou #onoutahiti #oph #tahiti #casemaclaim Fun last foto, @googlemaps caught us in the act. Thank you @selinamiles for sharing that information 🙏🏼

Tahiti, French Polynesia, 2019 While I am lucky enough to be able to work and travel within Europe, I really miss these beautiful overseas projects. So very thankful that the amazing Sara Roopina invited me to the @onoutahiti festival. @sarahroopinia is pretty much single handily responsible for turning Tahiti into this huge outdoor gallery. Nothing but respect for her work ethic and ambition! Both #Samira and me loved how her parents support her, nothing better than a supportive family. Also very happy with the video by @selinamiles which perfectly captures the island vibes. Thanks Selina! #Onou #Onoutahiti #oph #tahiti #casemaclaim This mural is dedicated to another island representative, the Ukulele. An instrument of joy and celebration, that brings together all generations and Polynesian families. An instrument which survived oppression and occupation. Please meet Matahi in this video, a self taught local luthier and a generous, humbled and gifted artist. Māuruuru roa @matahichungshing Your handmade Ukulele is part of our family art collection and it always reminds us on the good times we shared. #ukulele #ora #oraukulele
