“Replacing the aerosol can with the Lego brick is my challenge.

As a child, I was fascinated by the small colored brick with multiple combinations, giving me the impression of being able to build the world, my world. With adolescence, the brick was wisely stored in the attic, thus allowing me to discover other mediums such as the spray paint, a new universe then opened up to me. Graffiti became a game, just like Lego had been. The game of cat and mouse braving the forbidden; a game of creation and harmony when it is expressed on fresco but the thorny question of the medium of creation arose: Can we transcribe a graffiti on canvas? It was through my reflections that I fell back on the bricks of my childhood and the desire to make them live differently.

Brick has everything graffiti: acidic colors like those of the bombs that I love, an impressive size range like the caps that will serve as brushes for my aerosol lines ... And an almost unlimited creative capacity ...

From my first 3-dimensional tests to my Lego canvas creations, I try to give graffiti its playful side.
