Printing on dibon of a panel diversion from Jinks Kunst. It is published in 10 copies, numbered and signed by hand.
The bather was made on other panels in the streets of Nantes, Paris... ...in a simpler version.
Jinks Kunst is a Franco-Swiss urban artist born in 1976. He lives and works in Nantes.
His adolescence was marked by hip-hop culture and that of skateboarding. Magazines, fanzines, record covers lead him to discover the graffiti and illustrations of artists like Lazoo or Mode 2.
He first tried graffiti lettering, then in 2006, he launched into stencil. It is a real revelation and a devouring passion that never leaves him. These creations are all handmade. Thus, armed with a cutter, he meticulously chisels life-size works for hours.
In January 2008, he began to hijack traffic signs in Nantes, then in the rest of the world. Intervening in the streets of the globe is a necessity for Jinks Kunst. His creations are visible in more than 30 countries. 67404457
