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 through his father, a draftsman, Kobalt discovers at a very young age his first passion, music production. This passion guides him in his youth, and his early talents lead him to make a bold decision: to invest the money intended to fund his higher education to invest it in creating his first album.

Distributed by EMI, the album does not meet the expected success, but it marks the beginning of a rich artistic career full of experimentation.

Parallel to his musical career, Kobalt engages in the advertising world 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 Playboy'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 another artistic string to his bow. In 2010, he successfully founded his own photo agency, highlighting his entrepreneurial spirit.

In 2017, Kobalt makes a radical choice to sell his agency to fully embrace graphic art, influenced by his son, who has become a major figure in global street art. A pioneer in 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 has chosen to stay on the fringes of social media, thereby 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.
