Khalid Darnaoud was born in Casablanca on April 21, 1972. Having obtained the license in Arab law to the great happiness of his parents, Khalid passed the competition to take the royal road to legal studies and become a lawyer or judge. But deep down, he knew he was out of his element. His senses finally got the better of him. The artistic fiber ends up catching up with him. His initially timid attempts in painting or creation sent him clear signals about his aspirations and the choice of his future trajectory. With a deep gaze, Khalid knows today that he needs space, freedom of expression in order to flourish and regenerate. With the motto: Atypism, Creativity, Technicality His work is based on an assembly of iron rods that he welds to create the movements and expressions, after comes the filling step and it is thousands and thousands of points of welder to cover it all.

"It is high time to invest in human wealth".
