Mr Oizif

Mr. Oizif was born on July 24, 1984 in Villeneuve Saint-Georges.

At the age of 6, his parents are called to school, the teacher is categorical: "Later it will be necessary to direct it towards the drawing".

The boy's future was already mapped out: he was already immersed in a world where painting was very present in his family environment. The years of practice will do the rest. 

But before becoming a true artist, Mr. Oizif went through a chaotic school career: an idle student - hence his name - only two subjects mattered to him, sports and drawing.

For 12 years, he practiced basketball and immersed himself in the culture of street-ball. He blossomed through his interest in street art, music and clothing. 

An artist at heart, he found his way in the BEP arts and crafts. There he met a friend who, at the time, watching him fix large sheets of paper in his apartment to create large formats, said to him "you know there are large sheets of paper in the street? This will be the detonator: with paint cans, Mr. Oizif begins to realize portraits in very large formats, the same ones that he drew during his hours of class from his books of stories.

However, it is only 15 years after finishing his studies that Mr. Oizif will decide to take up the brushes again. Today Mr. Oizif creates works on various supports. He draws his inspiration from the cartoons of his childhood, science fiction films, series and comics.
