Born in 1979 in the Paris region, STESI 156 (name of his crew) first focused on tags and flops, executed in broad daylight in the street, before developing a form of automatic writing which is today now a characteristic of his style. The discovery of Arabic calligraphy is a step in his artistic journey.

Alongside his action in the street, STESI also confronts work on canvas, where he develops an abstract universe in which varied patterns such as patchwork and camouflage alternate and mix. Spray paint remains central to his practice even if he also uses pastels, oil and ink.
His ability to master his gesture is not a coincidence but the fruit of the assiduity with which STESI devotes himself to painting.
