"These delightful street 'carpets' by artist Arthur-Louis Ignoré (or Ali) of Rennes, France, overlays beautiful, abstract representations over an existing urban context..."
Treehugger reports — without more detail on that name "Ignoré." The word translates as "unknown." I assume it, like the acronym "Ali," are assumed names, chosen for a reason. I'd like more detail. Look at the photographs of the artwork at the link and weave your theories.

I thought that seemed pretty obvious, what with the "Ali"; it's like putting up a flag.
Arthur-Louis explains the work by saying, "It’s a way for me to interfere with people’s everyday life."
Next, a portrait of the prophet?
And "overlay... over" is bad.
Not half as bad as "existing urban context".

Pretty cool rooftop mandala.
And a tiny bit more background + more images.
So, now what we need are many pots of different neon, loud and clashing colors in paints and fill in all the blank spaces to create some retro Psychedlic Mandalas
If you want to see some beautiful street carpets get yourself to Antigua, Guatemala the week before Easter (Semana Santa). Gorgeous sawdust street carpets that the processions eventually walk over.
