Befa

240 STREET #3

Description

BEFA, né à Soissons en 1980, est d'abord un autodidacte, féru de cultures alternatives et populaires. Vivant entre Paris et Porto, il débute dans l'art urbain avec un avatar graphique qu'il décline sous plusieurs formes : graffiti, collages, pochoirs.

L'artiste se cache derrière cet alter-ego faussement naif qui observe tranquillement le monde de ses grands yeux vides et opaques. Tel est le regard de BEFA, bienveillant mais jamais crédule, contemplatif sans complaisance.

Inspiré par lart traditionnel portugais, son style se caractérise par ses formes simples, ses couleurs vives et ses motifs geométriques. A partir de son avatar, BEFA ose de nouvelles formes, de nouvelles techniques (bombes, pinceaux à lacrylique.) et fait se confronter les styles, entre naiveté et réalisme, imaginaire et esprit critique.

BEFA, born in Soissons in 1980, is a self-taught artist with a deep passion for alternative and popular cultures. Living between Paris and Porto, he began his journey in urban art through a graphic avatar that he explores across various mediums, including graffiti, paste-ups, and stencils.

The artist hides behind this deceptively naïve alter ego, quietly observing the world through its large, empty, opaque eyes. Such is BEFA's gaze : kind yet never gullible, contemplative without complacency.

Inspired by traditional Portuguese art, his visual language is defined by simple shapes, vibrant colours, and geometric patterns. Starting from this recurring avatar, BEFA continuously experiments with new forms and techniques, using spray paint, acrylic brushes, and more. His work brings together contrasting styles, balancing naivety and realism, imagination and critical thinking.
