Q: Tell us a bit about yourself!

I am an artist, composer, musician and director. I am friendly, yet dangerous.


Q: What is your art background?

My style is weird, dark, dystopian and with an edge. I like the Sci-Fi from the 70's with kitsch visuals and use it often as a reference for my inspiration. In my childhood I was obsessed with Japanese animation and a lot of it translates today in my present forms of expression. Cinematic soundtracks creating an emotion with sounds or supporting a visual with the appropriate musical atmosphere is really powerful and I consider this my forte.
I've been making art all my life. It started with music and drawing in my teen years. As a young adult I studied musical instrument fabrication. I built many fiddles, guitars and medieval instrument replicas. I then got involved with the graffiti and street art scene and developed many project involving or promoting street art.

My biggest achievement is my music catalog of around 300+ musical pieces (that includes 12 albums and EPs), I composed, produced and performed all the instruments. My music is distributed worldwide now (on spotify, itunes, etc.). These are the 4 album I published last year and my main theme was to mix #FUNK and #electro:

I have written, produced, financed and directed a full feature film, involving 80 actors and extras titled The Juju Gum Conspiracy that was released in 2018.
I was the owner of many art galleries /and or art spaces between 2000 and 2012 and that was an amazing experience that allowed me to curate local and international artists from around the world, put together group exhibitions that were successful and created an alternative art scene in my city that was non-existent at the time. During this period I presented hundreds of exhibitions.

My work as a fashion videographer was celebrated at different fashion events and fashion runways worldwide.

I was the sole owner of a production studio for TV and web for the last 10 years. I worked for prestigious companies and customers. This is a really demanding business and I take pride in the work I did even if most of it was publicity campaigns. I recently retired from that field but it still continues to influence my approach.

I am also soon celebrating my 30 years as a martial artist, I practice different styles but I have my deepest knowledge in the traditional art of Wing Chun Kung Fu. This was a big part of my life for long time and I attribute my dexterity and my general over the top confidence to this practice.




Q: How long have you been in cryptoart/ NFTs, how did you discover them and what has been your experience so far?

I think my transition into digital art came with cinema. In the 90's, digital films started to be more wide spread. Same for photo cameras. At this point in time I saw the upcoming possibility to create what was impossible before and I started to experiment and never stopped since. When this new technology appeared I learned all the editing software for video, music, photos and consider those tools now essential to be able to express myself through my art. I was at the forefront when blockchain technology appeared, it then opened new doors to distribute, share and collaborate with artists and I joined social blogging platforms to share my projects across the different mediums I use.
I joined Steemit in 2017 and I guess this was my official start into Crypto/art world. I did the transition to #HIVE when the change occured and consider HIVE to be a real community based blockchain.
