Biography

This 32-year-old artist, who trained at Hear in Strasbourg and is a member of Bastion 14, likes to offer his works to the public eye: "To pay homage to the Twingo's advertising slogan 'à vous d'inventer la vie qui va avec!'"

He tells the story of this car, bought in 2014 and used until 2018. He then set about transforming this now obsolete object.

By dismantling its bodywork, he engraves pieces and prints them to make a series of prints.

"La Vie qui va avec" is the result of the metamorphosis of Baptiste Filippi's Twingo into a printed work.

These irregular, indefinable, dented plates are tirelessly reworked by the artist, adorning it with subtle drawings, between signs and glimpsed landscapes.
