About the artist

Istraille is a painter, draftsman, graffiti artist who evolves in a colorful, urban universe and who, through his art, sketches his world with dynamism, strength and generosity. The technique, at the crossroads of the figurative and the graphic, even almost abstract in certain parts of the canvas; is used to mark strength and emotion. His universe is a visual contrast that disturbs and challenges the viewer through the harmonious blend, expressing luminous works. The experimentation with graffiti in 2001 is revealing and is the trigger for a professional project based on creativity. He works relentlessly and endures many sleepless nights, during his training as an illustrator/graphic designer, and still today... The art of Istraille, a real bridge between urban art and classical art, ignores labels and focuses on the composition of colors, and the effect that his paintings will cause. His art occupies a prominent place in his life, stubbornly drawing and his artistic technique, he transcends his models, whether they are in motion or whether they are portraits. His pictorial touch allows him to put sensitivity through his figurative brushstrokes and strength through his street-art touch. His sensitive work is revealed through his mixed technique, a mixture of acrylic paint, spray can, felt marker.
