His work is as much influenced by popular cultures as by scholarly ones.
At just twenty years old, he was exhibited in Paris, Amsterdam and New York.
Gradually, he diversified his artistic approaches through contact with artisans in a world tour that took him to Tunisia, Bulgaria, Ghana, Benin, Ethiopia, Vietnam, South Africa, Corsica, Cuba, Mexico, the United States, Cameroon and Israel. Without claiming a particular style, but developing a narrative universe of his own, populated by recurring characters, he has practiced all creative techniques: painting, sculpture, cartoon, tapestry, print, fresco, lacquer, silver embossed, ceramics, cartoon, digital images, among others. He is also the author or subject of over 150 art books and publications between 1978 and 2019.
