Jone Hopper - La chambre bleue

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist. In the late 1980s, he makes his “training” on the streets through an emerging movement of that time, graffiti. He tags his name on the street, on walls and on trains. Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he creates the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him because the artist stays faithful to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that it is the work that should be highlighted, not the person. Nonexistent on social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except to a few gallerists in the know. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, drawing from Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, digging into all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary while also touching Classical, he acts like a sampler… sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
