Very active during the 1980s and 1990s, he drew inspiration from the legacy of Pop Art artists and American culture (Basquiat, Warhol, etc.) Notable exhibitions: Joint exhibition from October 20 to 26, 2017, at the Maison du Patrimoine with photographer Nadine Comba Exhibition at the Bistrot Galerie “Un air de rien” in Collobrières in October 2015
