Physical description

The poster features a striking image of a young woman on a black BMX bike, resting on the edge of a Parisian rooftop, with the majestic dome of a historic building, probably the Opéra Garnier, in the background. The soft light of the sunset envelops the scene, creating an atmosphere that is both dramatic and poetic. The athlete, helmeted and focused, symbolizes the perfect balance between sporting mastery and urban audacity. The composition highlights the contrast between the dynamic energy of BMX and the architectural stability of the rooftops, while the Paris 2024 logos visually anchor this project in the context of the upcoming Olympic Games.

Notes

This poster highlights an audiovisual project produced by Valentin Petit in 2021, entitled "Course sur les toits de Paris". Produced by Division, this film captures the boldness and technical mastery of a BMX athlete performing acrobatic tricks and movements on the iconic rooftops of the French capital. In line with the spirit of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, this project embodies the fusion between sporting performance, architectural heritage and urban modernity. The official Paris 2024 logos are a reminder of the Games' commitment to promoting sport in all its forms, in an innovative and spectacular setting.
