Born in 1987 in the South of France, Onemizer is a contemporary artist whose journey began far from the typical artistic path. His first encounter with art occurred during his childhood in Africa, where the vibrant colors and diverse cultures left an indelible mark on his creative spirit.
Returning to France as a teenager, he discovered urban art while wandering the streets of Paris. Mesmerized by the graffiti along the walls of the périphérique, he was drawn to the raw and unfiltered energy of street art. His passion led him to clandestine painting sessions in abandoned lots, railways, and warehouses, where he honed his craft away from prying eyes.
After high school, Onemizer pursued art studies at a design school but ultimately chose to follow his artistic journey as a self-taught creator. His talent and determination soon caught the attention of his peers and mentors, who encouraged him to transition from walls to canvas. He began showcasing his work in unconventional spaces—hotels, restaurants, and bars—before gaining recognition in the international art scene.
A Unique Blend of Influences
Onemizer’s art draws inspiration from diverse sources:
Classic art movements that he cleverly reinterprets.

From spray paint to markers, airbrush, and mixed media, Onemizer’s innovative approach bridges the gap between the gritty energy of urban art and the sophistication of gallery exhibitions.
From the Streets to the Galleries
Onemizer dreams of changing the perception of graffiti and street art, transforming it from its misunderstood origins into a celebrated form of expression.
