Jone Hopper - Muse au repos

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
Towards the end of the 80s, he learns the ropes in the streets through an emerging movement at the time: graffiti. He tags his name on the streets, on walls and on trains. Known for his characters and his aerosol signatures, he founded the collective TBS (The Brutal Style) with Skepa and a few other committed graffiti artists. We know little about him because the artist remains true to the spirit of graffiti and wants to stay anonymous, believing that the artwork should be highlighted, not the person. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a true mystery except for a few gallery owners in the know. He compares his painting to a piece of Hip Hop, draws on Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or even Bacon, and borrows from all art movements, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical; he acts as a sampler... sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
