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, turning urban scars into emotionally charged works.

Initiated into 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 converse. One finds the heritage of Jacques Villeglé and Raymond Hains in ripped-poster art, 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, Banksy stencil, the pixelated universe of Invader and the iconic force of Shepard Fairey Obey. Without ever imitating them, Lasveguix asserts a personal handwriting, immediately identifiable.

Ripped posters, spray, acrylic, Posca and reliefs compose true “skins of walls,” where tears, superimpositions and traces of time become witnesses to a collective memory. Each work reveals a dialogue between matter, 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 growing interest from collectors. His career leads him to participate in art fairs, prestigious exhibitions as well as charity galas bringing together collectors, patrons and institutions. His work has notably been presented at events held at Roland-Garros, at the District 13 Art Fair at the 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 remnants of the city. He does not depict the walls: he reveals their soul, making urban heritage, memory and creation dialogue in a deeply contemporary and timeless work.
