Bio

VELVET CSX first started painting walls in the early 2000’s in the western part of France. The maritime and industrial landscapes were a great inspiration to him and it quickly awoke his creativity. Passionate drawer, he chose to dedicate his studies to art, and then to a degree in product design.Nowadays, as both an industrial designer and artist, he observes the world, with a critical but admiring eye, and focuses on humans and their environment as well as the objects they design.Through his paintings, he wonders about the way we produce, use, recover or divert the function of our manufactured environment.Attracted to a wide range of supports, he has chosen not to limit himself to one technique. His work is the union of both quick outdoor interventions and detailed oil painting canvases.VELVET CSX combines in his subjects his most intimate recollection with a rigorous observation of what surrounds him, in order to create a world in the twilight of reality and fantasy, narration and abstraction, pragmatism and sensibility.
