Vanité (2021) Painting by Onemizer

Onemizer is a contemporary French street artist. During his childhood in Africa, he had his initial exposure to art. As a teenager, upon returning to , he discovered urban art while exploring the streets of Paris. The graffiti adorning the walls along the ring road fascinated him. His artistic journey progressed in abandoned spaces such as vacant lots, railroad tracks, and disused warehouses, where he would paint discreetly. Following his graduation from high school, he made the decision to pursue art education at a design school, ultimately embarking on his path as a self-taught artist.

Onemizer draws his inspiration everywhere, from iconic works of art as well as from his everyday life. His artistic approach consists in trying to convey the sense of street art into the living room. His dream is to bring the streets into homes, so that all the writings, drawings, graffiti – which for him have been the greatest source of inspiration – are no longer perceived as undesirable and can now be deemed a full-fledged art form worthy of being exhibited in galleries with confidence.

In 2014 he was part of the team of about a hundred artists from all over who produced the longest graffiti scroll ever, which eventually made its way into the Guinness Book of World Records. More recently, he was selected by the influential Guide de l’Art Contemporain Urbain (Graffiti Art Magazine) to feature as one of the 50 most talented artists for the year 2019.

Onemizer was born in 1987, in . His works were exhibited nationally, as well as internationally in , USA, Senegal, Belgium.
