Miss.Tic's work often included sly wordplays and a heroine with flowing black hair, who resembled the artist herself, and the images became fixtures on walls across the capital.
Miss.Tic, whose provocative illustrations began cropping up in the Montmartre neighbourhood of Paris in the mid-80s and made her a pioneer of French street art, died Sunday aged 66, her family told AFP.
Radhia Novat grew up in the narrow streets in the shadow of Sacre-Coeur basilica, the daughter of a Tunisian father and a mother from Normandy in western France, where she began stencilling sly and emancipatory slogans.
Her family said she died of an unspecified illness.
Miss.Tic's work often included sly wordplays -- almost always lost in translation -- and a heroine with flowing black hair, who resembled the artist herself, and the images became fixtures on walls across the capital.
