I usually paint letters on flat surfaces, so it was a lot of fun going 3D!
Thank you to @agathe_juin and Laure from @cceorganisation for making this possible!
The artwork was created for the inauguration of a building named after the Scottish inventor James Watt. I started painting the letters in Normandy and finished live at the event in La Défense next to Paris.
Water-based spray paint on polystyrene.
I’m taking part in an auction raising funds for a french charity fighting poverty and discrimination : @secourspop
I painted this board with the word « Together » written on one side, and « Alone » on the other.
These words were chosen by Claire Alleaume , a French and British skateboarder, who managed to be both champion of France and of the UK!
She told me that although skateboarding is an individual sport, the community aspect is huge and skateboarding makes people come together.
The online auction has started. Funds will go to talking poverty. Bid online here:
« From the forest ».
I painted these containers for Laudescher, a wood industry located in Carentan, Normandy.
On the large container I painted patterns inspired by the forest with flowers, wood and leaves, and on the smaller one I painted patterns inspired by the wooden products created by the industry.
Thank you to the team at Laudescher for their warm welcome ! And thank you to Palma Festival for organising!
एक साथ (“Eksat” meaning “together” in Hindi). Acrylic on 40×50 cm art paper.
This word was first given to me to paint in Phule Nagar, a slum of Mumbai. I really enjoy using different alphabets and sanskrit always works well!
For sale, send me a message if you wish to buy.
I made these designs for @bierepetitecouronne , a craft beer brewery based in Gennevilliers, in the outskirts of Paris.
I’m no good at computer design so I used proper paint brushes on art paper, then scanned the artwork and handed over to the designers to add the info, barcode, etc… How do you like the labels?
Cheers to the brewery for the collab!
This time I created a piece without paint. Instead I used pieces of fabric sown together. I did it all myself with a sewing machine and I love how fabric adds texture! For sale, contact me for more info!
My dad taught me to sow when I was a teenager because I wanted to create flags to wave at the football stadium in Caen. This was at a time where I also learnt how to spray paint and how to create huge displays from plastic sheets in the stadium. Sowing is totally part of the ultras movement and football support in general. I’ve been using coloured fabric for a long time, but this is my first piece which isn’t designed for football which is why I’ve called it “Bandiera Senza Curva” 
flag without a football stand). Yet another exemple of « siamonoism* ».
* The term « siamonoism » comes from the italian phrase « … siamo noi » ( =we are … ) which is used by ultras of many italian football clubs in order highlight their identity like in the famous « Milano siamo noi » chant. « Siamonoism » designates artwork or artists who’ve emerged from ultras groups or who are inspired by the subculture.
Can you read the hidden word? (It’s in french).
I painted this 7.5 x 5.5 meter wall in a school in Gavray, Normandy.
The word was chosen by the pupils and painted in a single day instead of 2 days! A terrible weather forecast meant I had no choice but to finish the wall in a day before the rain came pouring down. I started at 10am and finished at 1:20am the following morning which meant working in the dark with artificial lighting.
In the end I enjoyed the challenge, and I spent the next day giving art classes to the pupils.
Thank you to the teachers and pupils of the Collège Roland Vaudatin for their warm welcome !
Collab piece with my friend @pierre_burnel_art in Cherbourg !
I very rarely do collaborations but I really enjoyed this one with Norman artist Pierre Burnel!
We painted this in a nursing home and the word « Tendresse » (tenderness) was chosen by the residents and carers.
Thank you to Usine Utopik and Résidence L’Hermitage for the very warm welcome!
Just painted this in a Jacques Decour school in Paris!
I was with a group of kids with special needs, some of them dyslexic like me. They chose the word « Espoir » (« Hope » in French). Loved the experience !
Thank you to Fouhida! Organised by the best gallery in town : @urban_signature
Leaving a slum in which I’ve been working for a month is always a heartbreaking experience. I’ve been through this so many times but I never really get used to it. I want to thank all the inhabitants of Zavodskoy Paselok for being such good hosts. It amazes me how much we understood each other even though we only spoke 25 words in common. Art really has this unique power!
I’m very happy to have painted these 8 different murals in the slum. The last one is the 214th mural since the beginning of « Share The Word Project » in 2013 in Jakarta. Massive thank you to Dudu for his help, and congratulations to my art partner Spag Bertin for his brilliant images.
I also want to thank the people who’ve been following me, encouraging me and those buying my artwork. I self fund this project so if we’re able to do this, it’s thanks to you.
