Biography:

Wags, born in Paris in 1970, embodies the journey of a polymorph artist whose creativity has unfolded from electronic music to contemporary graphic art. Born into a family where art was already present thanks to his father, a draftsman, Wags discovers at a very young age his first passion, musical creation. This passion guides him in his youth, and his early talents lead him to take a bold decision: to invest the money intended to fund his higher education in creating his first album.

Distributed by EMI, the album did not achieve the anticipated success, but it marks the beginning of a richly experimental artistic career.

parallel to his musical career, Wags enters the world of advertising as a designer/copywriter for the iconic Playboy magazine. For many years, he puts his creativity at the service of the publication, creating and producing the magazine’s advertising campaigns.

The turning point in his career comes in 2005 when he becomes a cameraman, thus exploring a new facet of the visual world. In 2007, he discovers a passion for photography, adding yet another artistic string to his bow. In 2010, he successfully founds his own photography agency, highlighting his entrepreneurial spirit.

In 2017, Wags makes a radical choice to sell his agency to fully embrace graphic art, influenced by his son, who has become a major figure in world street art. A pioneer of computer-assisted artistic creation, Wags stands out with over 3,000 works sold in galleries and online to date.

Wanting to explore new artistic universes, Wags is none other than Kobalt signing under this pseudonym to avoid interfering with his usual work.

This contemporary figurative painting draws inspiration from classical realism and a modern glamorous aesthetic. Collectors who appreciate the light of Joaquín Sorolla, the mastery of Anders Zorn, the elegance of John Singer Sargent, as well as the worlds of Richard S. Johnson, Pino Daeni, Jack Vettriano, Fabian Perez and Jeremy Lipking will find in this work an atmosphere and a treatment of light that are familiar to them.
