FenX is an urban artist born in 1974 in the Hauts-de-Seine department, in the suburbs of Paris. He lives and works in France.
As a teenager, he was involved in the street art movement: he was passionate about graffiti, hip-hop and skateboarding. In 1995, he took the pseudonym FenX (pronounced Fenix). A rebellious spirit, he started doing graffiti to challenge the forbidden.
Immersed in the culture of the 1980s (manga, superheroes, comics), FenX gradually moved from murals in urban spaces to working on canvas, a medium that allows him to create permanent works. He is inspired by artists such as Lichtenstein, Warhol and Crash.
He reinterprets the masterpieces of the Pop Art movement and captures in his paintings an urban energy and atmosphere, introducing a reflection on our society through hidden phrases, suggestive details or the titles he gives to his works.
His works have been exhibited in France and abroad (United States, Singapore, Holland, Hong Kong, Norway).
