Description from the seller

Imagine a world where Earth becomes the crossroads of wonders: superheroes breathe there, aliens stroll there, and distant galaxies find a familiar sparkle there...

About the series: Comics series

In this series, iconic heroes step out of their mythical roles to enter scenes where they never should have been. Flirting with irreverence, humor, and a hint of politics, these images reveal the fragile, human side, and sometimes cheeky, of legendary characters.

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 thanks to his father, a draftsman, Kobalt discovered at a very young age his first passion, musical creation. This passion guided him in his youth, and his early talents led him to make a bold decision: invest the money intended to fund his higher education in creating his first album.

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

Parallel to his musical career, Kobalt engaged in the world of advertising as a copywriter/designer for the iconic magazine Playboy. For many years, he put his creativity at the service of the publication by creating and producing the magazine’s advertising campaigns.

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

In 2017, Kobalt made a radical choice to sell his agency to fully embrace graphic art, inspired by his son, which became a major figure in global street art. A pioneer of computer-assisted art creation, Kobalt stands out with more than 3000 works sold in galleries and online to date.

His artistic approach is marked by bold use of humor, provocation, and anachronisms, with a particular fondness for altering magazine covers, a style that makes him instantly recognizable.

Despite the digital era, Kobalt has chosen to stay away from social networks, 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.
