Biography:

Kobalt, born in Paris in 1970, embodies the journey of a polymath artist whose creativity has spanned electronic music and contemporary graphic art. From a family where art was already present through his father, a designer, Kobalt discovered his first passion at a young age: music creation. This passion guided him in his youth, and his early talents led him to take a bold decision: to invest the money intended to fund his higher education into creating his first album.
Distributed by EMI, the album did not meet the anticipated success, but it marked the beginning of a rich artistic career full of experimentation.

Alongside his musical career, Kobalt ventured into the advertising world as a writer/concept creator for the iconic Playboy magazine. For many years, he put his creativity to work for the publication, creating and producing the magazine’s advertising campaigns.

The turning point in his career came in 2005 when he became a cameraman, 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 had become a major figure in world street art. A pioneer of computer-assisted artistic creation, Kobalt stands out with nearly 3000 works sold in galleries and online to date.

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

Despite the digital age, Kobalt has chosen to stay off social media, 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.
