FOUED MOKRANI

Born in 1979 in Tunis, Foued grew up in Tunisia. He then lived

in the Middle East for a few years before settling in France.

Without any formal artistic training, he emphasizes the

imperfections of his drawing, developing a naive, surreal, and

unique style. He experiments with different types of media

and techniques.

His work illustrates human relationships and the relationship

between humans and animals, whether real or surreal, and

conveys varied, often nonconformist messages. His

inspiration is fueled by his travel memories, ethnic arts, but

also by scenes from everyday life or the interpretation of his

own dreams.

He draws his inspiration from his passion for calligraphy,

street art, and color, as well as from the works of Carlo Zinelli,

Bill Taylor, Victor Brauner, Lesage, and many others. Artistic

Approach:

• Each creation is the result of in-depth research,

observation, and reflection. Once the subject is determined, I

like to explore conventional and less conventional media

using different techniques (acrylic, ballpoint pen, ink, collage,

ceramics, etc.).
