Solo show by MIST « Dripping Souls» Marrakech 18 MAY - 17 JUNE 2012

Mist began practicing graffiti in Paris in the late eighties, then to the four corners of the globe, from which he takes its graphic codes.

He quickly became one of the best tracers of graffiti lettering "wild style" in Europe - often accompanied by the characters of his acolyte at this time Steph Cop - he influenced a whole generation from which emerged what became the street art culture.

His style and his collaboration with artists like Tilt, Steph Cop, T.Kid, Bando ... on many accomplishments raised him as an internationally recognized artist on the graffiti scene.

Then in 1991, during the Graffiti Art exhibition at the National Museum of French Monuments he exhibited paintings on wood cut with other internationally renowned American artists like Futura, Rammellzee, Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat.

Always in the vanguard, Mist is one of the few artists from this movement to work in volume. He is a pioneer of the designer toys phenomenon, these small sculptures produced in vinyl edition of 100-1000 pieces and sold in toy collection stores.

Specialists place him now in the top five worldwide with other artists like Kaws and Futura.
