Biography
Mr.Oreke was born in 1986, he is a French artist and does "Street Pop Art". During early 2000's, he came across pictorial art through graffiti. He began covering walls with spray painted drawings with shimmering colors before continuing the same process on canvas.
His style drew inspiration from the pop art movement and American comics of the 50's and 60's. Abstraction made a major impact on his style during his early years, while masculine and feminine faces in stencil became part of his universe. Human figures is Roy Lichtenstein's inheritance, a painter he admires for his portraits. Mr. Oreke's uniqueness can be seen through his backgrounds where he uses spray paint in a graffiti like manner. The artist combines ink with acrylic and sometimes varied elements such as bank notes. Narration is hinted with humor, fantasy and energy. A formal freedom is added by mixing collages, colors and typographic elements....and are a lot like comic books.
