Biography: Artist-Worker, a French painter and urban artist, has specialized in creating stencil works and aerosol spray art since 2000. He often applies his art to walls but also on various supports such as vinyl records and wooden panels. His career began in 1993 with stencil painting, but it was in 2000 that he fully committed to it, adopting the name “Artist-Worker.” Three years later, he organized, in collaboration with Spliff Gâchette, the event “Internationale Pochoiriste” in Nogent-sur-Marne. This event involved the joint creation of a 69-meter mural with participants including Yseult, Epsylon Point, among others. Artist-Worker engages in several legal initiatives in the field of urban painting. Among these, the Stencil Project in 2004 brought together prominent figures of Paris street art, such as Blek le Rat and Jef Aérosol. In 2005, he exhibited during “Section Urbaine” at the Blancs-Manteaux market in Paris, alongside artists such as Ernest Pignon-Ernest, Speedy Graphito and others. His stencil skills attracted Is Bach, future Js of JanaundJs, and 6lex, who wished to learn from him. This collaboration marked the birth of WCA, the Working Class Artists, which would later become WCA-ASA, or “Altona Stencil Art.” At that time, he traveled to Hamburg and welcomed new members into the collective, including Jana, future member of JanaundJs. In 2008, he took part in the Lézarts de la Bièvre annual event in Paris and was invited to London by Banksy for the Cans festival, where he rubbed shoulders with renowned artists such as the Portuguese Vhils. Artiste-Ouvrier’s works are distinguished by their high level of detail and their frequent use of color. His technique, which uses only two stencils but can involve up to 48 colors, is remarkable, particularly in his depictions of religious spaces such as the Amiens Cathedral. His style is strongly influenced by 19th-century painting, especially by the Pre-Raphaelite movement.
