Biography

I was born with the second millenium. The three zeros of my birth year are the white page of a world on which everything can be drawn : pocket creatures, friends of those that invade my school court , as well as figurines that I set and film in micro series. During the years spent at middle school I discovered the Hip Hop culture and started graffiti work : I became Claks. My inspiration comes from cinema and pop culture : I paint canvases and murals in the urban landscape. Graffiti opens a fascinating dimension : the giant faces invite me to look at the others and catch their own look.
