Allias is a contemporary French painter. He made the decision to travel the world in 2010 as he was passionate about discovery, creativity, and driven by a certain curiosity. Allias will spend 10 years "globe trotting", passing through Latin America, Africa, before settling in Southeast Asia for a while to further his artistic career on both a musical and visual level.
This jack-of-all-trades accumulates influences and mixes calligraphy, pop art and graffiti through their purest vitality and spontaneity. He gives birth to two universes that he names "Mécanic Calligraphic" and "Hybrid Graffiti". He succeeds in the feat of marrying abstraction and figurative, with the neo-classical representation of busts and bodies of ancient statuary that he represents in a fragmented or broken way, evoking a certain fragility and precariousness of human existence. The whole is worked in a careful balance of movements, forms, bright colors and textures.
Inspired by great painters, sculptors of the last centuries and street-artists of today, he refers to painters or sculptors such as Kandinsky, Malevich, Mitoraj, Poliakoff, Blo, Pichiavo, Smash137, Tilt to name a few. His participation in various street art festivals around the world, performances for various brands (Bentley, VW, Huawei), collaborations with Alliances and French Institutes and solo or group exhibitions with renowned artists in France, Dom-Tom, South-East Asia or Latin America gradually pushed him towards an international career.
