Jone Hopper - Jeune femme épluchant des pommes

Born in 1977, Jone Hopper is a French artist.
By the late 1980s, he was earning his stripes on the streets through an emerging movement of the time: graffiti. He tags his name 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 writers. We know little about him because the artist stays true to the spirit of graffiti and wishes to remain anonymous, believing that the work should be highlighted and not the person. Absent from social networks, absent from openings, a faceless artist, he remains a real mystery except for a few gallery owners in the confidence. He compares his painting to a Hip Hop verse, drawing on Basquiat, Keith Haring, Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol, or even Bacon; he taps into all painting currents, from Modern to Contemporary through Classical, acting like a sampler… sampling, cutting, assembling, and thus creating new images.
