About the artist
French street-artist, Artiste RAST started painting at the age of 14. After grafitti and lettering, he has been working on portraits for the last ten years. His « World Faces" cover more than 90 walls in France and abroad. Immediately recognizable, his style is a combination of detailed realism and very dense texture with bright and cheerful colors. His murals are mainly inspired by anonymous people he met during his travels in Asia and America. Artiste RAST's work is distinguished by the intense humanity it exudes. The importance given to the look and the meticulousness given to each detail testify his deep respect for the people and the cultures he had the chance to meet. Always seeking to innovate, he introduces mechanics to his murals. Thus animated, they are enriched with optical illusions that fascinate the visitors. In 2022, his first solo exhibition took place at Lavo/matik (Paris 13). This neighbourhood is the very center of street-art in Paris. With more than 10K followers on Instagram, his reputation is growing. Also in 2022, invited in Greensboro, North-Carolina, for his first time he completed two walls in the United States.
