MiKa.l

France  • 1957

Presentation

MIKA L was born on 15th June, 1957 in Biarritz. Initially he experimented with various techniques, mediums and styles, before exploring a new means of artistic expression, 3D modelling.

Mika L opted for virtual 3D image and transformed it into a material through sculpture. His sculptures are extremely refined. His proportions flirt around with math calculations, to achieve harmony. This harmony combines with a taste for disorder and chaos. The artist therefore doesn't use brushes, markers, airbrush and adopts two computers. A true demiurge, he gives body to toys, as "given the current atmosphere, it's tempting to produce toys which aren't that nice, like young rebels ready to fight with their life, or to distort, compare, oppose, tag ancient masters or contemporary artists". Therefore, his sculptures are a mirror like image of our society.

In 1987, he inaugurated his first exhibition and embarked upon an international career: from Mexico to Barcelona, not to mention Dominican Republic and Paris.
