Kill Yourself Like A Man or KYLAM

My work is a mix of so many things that inspire me, in particular old symbolism and slogan or ad imagery. I like to use strong symbolism and pictures out of their context. Handmaking work is very important in my artistic process, I try to do all that I can by myself only and avoid touching any kind of computer. A lot of people of my generation have lost the way of creating with simple materials like pens or ink, they prefer computer or digital art. I want to go to the source, the first real sense that we found when we started to draw in our childhood, just chilled and making stories. I think it’s a bit because I’m someone who is very conservatory, I prefer touchable art more than virtual art.

All starting when I was a teen, I discovered wildstyle graffiti and practiced it a lot, it was a real obsession. After many years, it became a bit closed and I needed to try another way of expressing myself, graffiti had reached its limits for me. So I decided to draw the things I had in my mind, more instinctive, personal, gross and creating characters and worlds for playing with them and showing what I want without any limits of imagination.

It’s hard to synthetize in few words, some things that inspire me are : old civilisations, symbolism, people, conspiracy, money, freaks, advertising, alchemy, typography, minimalism. Music is really a big part of my process to create so I listen to a lot, it give me ideas or a mood . My friends Selp and Streetsking also inspire me a lot, we have the same love for dark things, our creations are like a conversations between us…
