EMERGING ARTIST
Bordeaux / France
Artiste Painter
Mathoou

Born in 1996 in the Paris region, I grew up and discovered the world of street art in the Bordeaux metropolitan area. Initially drawn to dance, I immersed myself in urban culture through contact with the people around me. Around the age of 15, I explored graffiti, stenciling, collage, and customizing objects. Fascinated by artists like Shepard Fairey, Seth, Nasti, Jace, and Alber, I refined my vision and developed my own artistic identity. After studying catering, I worked as a pastry chef for nearly nine years. My need to create and express myself has never left me, and alongside my work, I created my first canvases using spray paint and Posca. The 2020 lockdown marked a turning point. I devoted myself fully to painting and refined my style: spray-painting and stenciling backgrounds, enhanced with Posca drawings. My colorful and original creations reflect my love for my region and my personal world. Blending urban culture and influences from the Southwest, I draw what inspires me over the years. I use all media, but what I prefer is to repurpose end-of-life objects. My world is very colorful and fully reflects my personality and my desire to bring color to the lives of the people who will enjoy my works.
