Who am I ?

Anarchist for a long time and illustrator of vintage stuff since March 2020.

 

J’ai la chance d’être un artiste propagandiste qui vit en France en collocation avec sa partenaire, ses chats et sa neuro-atypie .

 

J’adore les ragondins (which I can use to remain anonymous on the Internet), puffins and buckwheat pancakes.

 

Precarious & unemployed (but not jobless), I draw both to calm my anxieties and to earn a little money.

An anarchist focus

My main goal is to make anarchist, communist and socialist propaganda that affects the largest number of people.

 

So I include progressive and revolutionary messages in my work, as well as inclusive and radical themes.

 

Mutual aid, class struggle, anti-authoritarianism mais également les questions d’gender identity or the denunciation of police brutality are my favourite subjects.

A radical approach

Dans une optique anarchiste et une volonté d’accessibilité, I distribute my content for free.

 

All my work (except for commissions) is published under a Creatives Commons license..

 

In addition to this free sharingI offer paid services and prints for purchase.

 

Ce compromis  gratuit/payant me permet (d’essayer) de vivre de mon travail tout en respectant au mieux mes convictions idéologiques.

Vintage inspirations

My creations are inspired by posters, maps and iconographic documents from the 1840s to the 1920s, and more particularly by Victorian, Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau styles.

 

My aim is to make revolutionary propaganda by diverting the uses of advertising and by refusing the current norms of communication. This is reflected both in the choice of messages and in the refusal to respect the hierarchy of information and symbols of modern design.
