Samuel Dougados
Samuel Dougados is an artist specializing in beach art, a type of graffiti created on beaches during low tide. This work is dual in nature, as he photographs beach art. By incorporating various aspects of photography, he creates a distinct atmosphere and a more poetic reading of the piece.
He creates large frescoes on the beach using the unique tool of a rake at low tide. This discipline, which is comparable to street art in terms of its impulsive, gratuitous nature and appropriation of common space, enables him to express himself in a way that no other medium can. He has no frame, no bounds, except those imposed by the rising tide.
Samuel Dougados was born in 1976 and is a self-taught artist. He currently resides in Biarritz, France's southwest region. His work is held in a number of public and private collections, including the Institut Culturel Bernard Magrez in Bordeaux, as well as by a number of private collectors. He has taken part in numerous exhibitions and received numerous awards. In 2011, he has crowned the first world champion of beach art in Jersey.

Bravo pour toutes ces oeuvres éphémères d'une qualité exceptionnelles. Bien amicalement. Gaby
Superbes oeuvres que j'appellerais : oeuvres d'art effet mer.
Nos grandes plages de la Côte d'Opale aimeraient très certainement être peignées avec votre râteau.
Mais quel dommage d'affubler vos oeuvres d'un titre en anglais !
le râteau est un bel outil et il à trouvé son maître ;-).
bravo pour ces interventions libres poetiques, ephemeres merci.encore!!!!!
Bravo l'artiste !..nous sommes voisins car je peux apercevoir vos oeuvres de mon salon , en face de la fontaine ...je ne marche jamais sur vos oeuvres ! . je suis aussi sur "Artmajeur " avec mes peintures . bonne continuation à vous ...
Favoloso! Semplicemente favolosa l'idea di usare i vinili per l'incisione! Sei bravissimo! continua così.. a presto
très belle photo des plages de Biarritz , art-plage réussi , j'aime beucoup...
ce qu'il m'arrive d'entendre de temps en temps!:)
Merci!!
