Piotre

Biography

Piotre, aka Pierre Ygouf, is an artist born in Caen, trained at the STRATE Design School in Paris.
Initially marked by street art and throw up,his graphic research evolves towards figurative influences Keith Haring, Tristan Eaton, and the Bahaus Codes, but also towards a more abstract work on color, in the lineage of Di Rosa, JonOne or Cope2.
Prolific painter, multiplying the supports and the crossed collaborations, he develops his look as well in the proliferation of black-and-white patterns composing halfway boards between comics and paintings by Hieronymus Bosch, than in a more abstract search around confrontation between the primary colors, creating the graphic chimeras who populate his world.

On his canvases, whose frame is placed on an endless universe, or on the walls he approaches as integrated creations in their environment, he constantly questions the boundaries of our daily life, inviting the viewer to extend the story of his own experience.
