Küfi San

"Küfi San", by his civil name Sylvain DERAED, is a French visual artist, born in Roubaix in 1981 and living in Belgium for 6 years now.

Self-taught artist, "Küfi San" has been working since 2009 in different artistic registers such as painting and sculpture.

A red thread was able to be created throughout his artistic process, that of the Human. Indeed, even if at first glance the colorful geometric shapes he likes to use may seem abstract, "Küfi San" sees them as systems, systems where Man influences. His work advocates "being together", "living together", "doing together", concepts and values that he likes and highlights during numerous collaborations and workshops with different groups of children and adults. adults from France and Belgium.

A versatile artist, he uses all forms and materials of expression, although in recent years he has focused more on the use of aerosol sprays, which he uses both on canvas and on walls when creating frescoes.

Fond of bright and contrasting colors, these geometric agglomerations are free of interpretation, systems that can represent landscapes, chimeras, faces, leaving the spectator free to feel and live each work as he perceives it.
