Benjamin Capdevielle

Self-taught, Benjamin Capdevielle did a career in photography before turning towards painting, his passion. Currently in Bordeaux, the artist now combines painting with photography.

Influenced by the culture of American comics, Japanese Manga and Street Art, he creates works which are divided into several parts, whose format and framing remind us of the comic book labels. These past few years, he has been acknowledged for his very colorful and modern paintings.

Benjamin managed to develop a personal aesthetic, mainly based on folk art. His works have a lot of depth therefore it plunges us at the core of the action, in an anti-depressing universe with amazing but comic energy. This universe led him to work regularly with the world of cinema, television and advertisement campaigns.
