Hello, my name is César.
I'm a French artist, but I have been living in Peniche for the last few years.
Like many of us, I have been completely addicted to surfing since the age of 11. Alongside my love of being in the water, I began as a graffiti artist nearly 20 years ago and I have recently moved into creating collages.
My collages are created from books (classic novels and lesser-known story books, all connected with a story around the ocean); vintage magazines and coloured cards.
My creations play on the idea of timelessness. I find images from the past in vintage books and magazines, playing on the idea that surfing will never age.
When I've chosen a book to use, first I read it, then I shred it. Just like a surfer on a wave.
My line of creation resides around the sentence: " To read the wave ".
