A comic artist from French, that also known as comic writer, founder of La Maison qui pue (A House that stink) comic collective, and pretty well known in France since he already gain some awards for his comic works. With great passion of Asian culture he was done some trip to South Asia that end up become inspiration for several of his comic.
Recently he visit Indonesia, invited by Centre Culturel Français Jakarta, to make workshop and exhibition of his works, and I took this chance to sent some short interview.
1. How to keep your creativity works?
Well, I try to get inspiration from the real world and the event or experience that moves me.
2. Favorite media?
water color on paper… but it may change (black&white ? computer ? who knows ? lol !)
Difficult to say. but definitely there is in one hand a lot of beauty and in the other hand some drama in Asia that I want to tell and draw in my books.
Work hard, day and night… but don’t forget to go out, travel and see how the world can be wonderful.
Work hard, day and night also ! and read some good indie comics of course !
