About the series: Comics series

In this series, iconic heroes step out of their mythical roles to enter scenes where they would never have belonged. Flirt­ing with irreverence, humor and a hint of politics, these images reveal the fragile, human side, and sometimes impertinent, of legendary characters...

Biography:

Kobalt, born in Paris in 1970, embodies the journey of a polymath artist whose creativity has unfolded from electronic music to contemporary graphic art. Coming from a family where art was already present thanks to his father, a draftsman, Kobalt discovered his first passion very young: music creation. This passion guided him in his youth, and his early talents led him to make a bold decision: to invest the money destined to fund his higher studies into creating his first album.
Distributed by EMI, the album did not meet the expected success, but it marked the beginning of an artist career rich in experimentation.

In parallel to his musical career, Kobalt entered the world of advertising as a copywriter for the iconic Playboy magazine. For many years, he put his creativity at the service of the publication by creating and producing its advertising campaigns.

The turning point in his career came in 2005 when he became a cameraman, thus exploring a new facet of the visual world. In 2007, he discovered a passion for photography, adding another artistic string to his bow. In 2010, he successfully founded his own photo agency, highlighting his entrepreneurial spirit.

In 2017, Kobalt made a radical choice to sell his agency to fully embrace graphic art, influenced by his son, who became a major figure in global street art. A pioneer of computer-assisted art creation, Kobalt stands out with nearly 3,000 works sold in galleries and online to date.

His artistic approach is marked by bold use of humor, provocation and anachronisms, with a particular penchant for appropriating magazine covers, a style that makes him instantly recognizable.

Despite the digital era, Kobalt chose to stay off social networks, thus preserving a certain privacy. Today, he uses all available digital tools to bring his creations to life, continuing to push the boundaries of artistic expression with a subtle blend of inspiration, innovation and humor.
