Thirsty Bstrd is a French visual artist from Paris, using spray paint, stencils, stickers and videos. His work mainly consists in making satirical comments about society, politics and consumerism, by using powerful symbols and popular images and making them look funny or weird. The purpose being to provoke and generate an emotion.
From 2011 to 2015, he was the artistic director of his own creative agency based in Paris. In addition to his inventive works for companies, he worked as a curator and organised numerous urban art exhibitions in Paris and Los Angeles, showing his own art at every opportunity.
His work features in solo and group shows and numerous collections in Paris, London, Singapore. It also attracted attention in several art auctions with a great amount of enthusiasm. His artworks, from stencils to stickers, can be seen by a worldwide audience in the streets. Following on from our collaboration together which started in October 2016 (as one of only two exclusive UK galleries) Thirsty Bstrd has gone on to successfully exhibit his creative prowess at Miami Art Basel and New York in December and January respectively.
The new collection of artworks launched at the start of 2017 sees Thirsty Bstrd continuing his clever interpretations of iconic Banksy artworks meeting the Star Wars universe for the ultimate pop culture series! He was gracious enough to visit the gallery and create a truly unique original mural of Han Solo on the gallery entrance too!
