LASVEGUIX

French contemporary artist Lasveguix develops a singular universe at the crossroads of street art, collage, and contemporary painting. His work questions the memory of walls, the passage of time, and the poetry of the ephemeral, transforming urban scars into emotionally charged pieces.

Introduced to graffiti by his cousin SUOZ, he forges his visual language through contact with the walls of Paris and London. His work sits within an artistic lineage where the great names of urban and contemporary art dialogue with each other. One finds the heritage of Jacques Villeglé and Raymond Hains in the art of torn posters, the sculptural power of Vhils, the raw energy of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the silhouettes of Jérôme Mesnager, the poetry of Miss Tic, the urban memory of Ernest Pignon-Ernest, Jef Aérosol's stencil art, Invader's pixelated universe, and Shepard Fairey’s iconic imagery. Without ever imitating them, Lasveguix asserts a personal, instantly identifiable handwriting.

Torn posters, spray, acrylic, Posca markers, and reliefs compose true “skins of walls,” where tears, overlays, and traces of time become witnesses to a collective memory. Each work reveals a dialogue between material, history, and emotion, inviting the viewer to rediscover the beauty of what the city seemed to have forgotten.

Lasveguix regularly exhibits in France and internationally. His works join private collections in many countries and reflect a growing interest from collectors. His career leads him to participate in art fairs, prestigious exhibitions, and charity galas bringing together collectors, patrons, and institutions. His work has notably been presented at events organized at Roland-Garros, the District 13 Art Fair at Hôtel Drouot, in Monaco, and at several emblematic venues of the contemporary art scene.

Through each of his creations, Lasveguix gives a second life to the vestiges of the city. He does not depict the walls; he reveals their soul, enabling dialogue between urban heritage, memory, and creation in a work that is deeply contemporary and timeless.
