Description from the seller

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
In the late 1980s, he learned his craft on the street through an emerging movement of the time: graffiti. He tags his name on the streets, on walls, and on trains.
Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he created the TBS (The Brutal Style) collective with Skepa and a few other committed grafters.
We know little about him because the artist stays faithful to the graffiti spirit and desires to remain anonymous, considering 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 gallery owners 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; he plucks from all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical, acting like a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling and thus creating new images.
- Mixed media: aerosol, pastel and acrylic on canvas
- With certificate of authenticity
