In the summer of 2003, Bren Bataclan began his street art installation, "Smile Boston Project." The project involves the artist leaving his cartoon inspired paintings for people to take for "free" all over Boston (park benches, trains, schools, malls, etc.). Attached to each painting is a note saying, "This painting is yours if you promise to smile at random people more often." Bren has since gone worldwide with his "Smile Boston Project" and has begun to exhibit his paintings across the country.
