Pappay set up shop in southern France about twenty years ago and has continued to create and reinvent himself. He draws inspiration from the chaos of cities and their architecture, as well as from graphic design and street art. His highly realistic, vibrant-colored style invites us to live and feel the scenes he depicts.
Through customization and the creation of larger-scale works, Pappay is making his mark on the contemporary art scene.
His works are exhibited in galleries nationally and internationally, notably in Singapore and the United States (Philadelphia).
He won 3rd prize in the Ride Smart Live Art competition in Peyssac (33, France) and regularly participates in street-art festivals in southern France.
Pappay has a clientele of professionals for mural work and collaborates with major international groups such as Danone, Voyage Privé, Ironman...
