ABOUT THE ARTWORK
With “Graffiti Lovers”, I explore a simple yet powerful moment — the act of expressing emotion through creation.
The scene captures two children interacting with a painted heart, creating a direct narrative that is both playful and symbolic. It reflects spontaneity, innocence and the universal need to express connection.
The contrast between the figures and the vibrant, textured background creates an immediate visual impact. The composition feels alive, almost in motion, as if the graffiti itself were still being created.
I built the figures using my hand-cut stencil technique, ensuring precision and clarity, while the background is entirely instinctive, layered and impossible to reproduce.
This tension between control and spontaneity defines my work.
Each piece I create is unique. Even when I revisit similar compositions, the background is never reproduced, making every artwork a one-of-a-kind variation.
Narrative compositions like this one tend to attract strong attention during auctions due to their emotional readability and immediate connection with the viewer.
MY WORK IN THE MARKET
My works are actively collected through international auctions, with a growing base of collectors following my stencil-based series.
This recurring demand reinforces the collectible nature of each piece, where early acquisitions become part of an evolving artistic trajectory.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
I am a French stencil artist working between precision and instinct.
My process combines digital preparation, hand-cut stencils and expressive painted backgrounds. Each piece is built through this contrast — control in the subject, freedom in the background.
I have created murals across France and perform live painting at weddings and corporate events.
All my artworks are original pieces — no prints, no editions.
