Born in Bergerac, in 1984, Shake is a street artist who has established himself over the years with colorful and unique compositions.

Shake as in "mix" evokes both the ball that hits in the spray paint and in a broader sense for the mixture of genres.

The artist first of all built his sensitivity in photography, an art combining technique and artistic composition: a skilful balance between know-how and creativity. Throughout his travels and his encounters, he is passionate about street and pop art, attracted by the freedom of these two worlds.

Shake tirelessly seeks new, less traditional media. Skateboarding culture therefore imposed itself on him as a “must" symbol of committed youth and popular culture. This defines a real way of life with strong values: creativity, sharing and freedom to which the artist adheres. Concerned about its environment, it gives a second life to everyday objects doomed to oblivion and destruction such as fire extinguishers, gas cylinders, spray ...

His sculptures crystallize the codes of the street and of luxury, which are measured to form a single entity. The richness and the depth of the colors of his compositions never take away the deep balance which inhabit his work.

In recent years, Shake has been trying out new compositions like the famous Crunch series! Works, in painted resin, which suggest an art overflowing with gluttony or even aerosol cans which pay homage to the biggest names in popular culture and street artists.

Over the years, his work evolves because art cannot be static, art is in perpetual movement, while maintaining the codes of urban culture.
