Le retour du refoulé ( The Return of the Repressed) is both the title of Levalet’s in situ work at the Völklingen Ironworks World Cultural Heritage Site, and a psychoanalytical term coined by Sigmund Freud.

His highly realistic black and white figures have all been applied to paper by hand, and then pasted onto surfaces.

Where Levalet differs considerably from such figures is in the fact that he is not a stencil artist. But they contain less social commentary and therefore seem more playful. In terms of composition, his ideas are very similar to those of stencil artists such as Banksy or Blek le Rat.
