No Vacancy, 2024

Thomas Krief  

Born in the Alps, Thomas grew up amidst the mountains, skis on his feet. At 6 years old, he discovered freestyle skiing, a discipline that would become his first language of expression. 

For nearly twenty years, he competed at the highest international level, with medals at the World Championships, the X-Games, and World Cups. He also represented his country twice at the Winter Olympics in Sochi (2014) and Pyeongchang (2018). 

Beyond performance, image and creation hold a central place in his athletic journey. Thomas is distinguished by his style, his sense of aesthetics, and his ability to reveal the artistic dimension of his sport. 

In 2020, he opened a new chapter and fully dedicated himself to his second passion. Self-taught, Thomas develops a unique universe, nourished by urban culture, his travels, and a constant desire to experiment. He explores materials and plays with relief and light to create works with a powerful character. 

His work, whose collection "Screw Art" is one of the most emblematic expressions, is based on the duality that defines him: a balance between mastery and letting go. Each work is the result of in-depth research, mixed with an intuitive gesture where emotion guides the creation. 

Thomas does not confine himself to any medium and advocates for a practice in perpetual evolution. The whole forms a unique visual language, rooted in movement, textures, and light. A living art that dialogues with the viewer's emotions and invites reflection.
