Zabou

http://zabou.me/

Originally from France, Zabou moved to and started painting London in 2012. She has since then been on a self-appointed mission to paint as much of the capital as possible. With a seemingly endless supply of fresh designs to work with, Zabou is very much one of London?s most proactive artists.

Her works are striking, humourous and thought-provoking, set to elicit a range of emotions upon viewing, depending on the message each mural conveys. Working with a combination of stencil and freehand techniques, she likes to question society and to poke fun at conformists. First and foremost however is the fact that each of Zabou?s subjects are drawn from her personal experiences, taking what she sees around her and projecting it to a new audience.

Beyond this, and what is fundamental about Zabou?s work, is her innate ability to integrate the location and surroundings with her artworks: not just wishing to paint on the street, she makes them part of the street. The pieces harmonise with their surroundings and in turn create something which allows its audience to engage with the work as an installation. This is the very essence of street art and something few artists master, but certainly one of Zabou?s greatest talents.

Her witty and thoughtful designs have given her a much sought after reputation, leading her to travel the world to spread her artistic message of love, fun or rebellion. She has painted in England, France, Portugal, Cyprus, Sweden, Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Dubai and the U.S.A. Beyond her travels, Zabou?s accomplishments include speaking events such as the prestigious TedX conferences on the subject ?Everything you know is wrong? in Limassol, Cyprus (2014), seeing her artwork published in books including: Planet Banksy by Ket (2014) and The World?s 50 Best Women Street Artists by Graffito Books (2017), as well as having her work exhibited at the famous Saatchi Gallery in London as part of the ?XX: A Moment In Time? show curated by Olly Walker (2016).

Zabou is an artist whose techniques and boldness are constantly evolving. She is certainly not set to be stopping on her journey anytime soon, fortunately she has to much left to say to the world.

As an Eco-artivist, 'Rubbish artist,' and mosaicist, I pioneer sustainable art, creating works entirely from waste and with the minimum possible environmental impact.

Haunted by mankind’s imminent self-destruction, I believe in systemic re-thinking. Each tessera I create is a protest against our disposable lifestyle.

My commitment to sustainability encompasses every aspect of my life, from veganism to renewables, second-hand clothes, and not flying.

Formerly a City solicitor, I graduated with distinction from LSoM in 2019, where I also lectured Fabrication. Internationally, I exhibited in 100+ venues, was published in 90+ articles and textbooks, and won 20+ awards. I ama member of the Insights Of An EcoArtist community (IOAEA), the By/Design collective, Act for Ealing, BAMM, Heritage Crafts, VAA and Mensa.

I am the founder of Payment in Kind(ness)© (accepting eco-friendly actions as payment towards my artwork) and of ArtforTrash© (creating artwork with the clients’ own waste). I donates 10% of any ArtforTrash commission to Neptune's Pirates (or other environmental charities), and I run pro-bono projects on eco-awareness.

I amnow on retainer with the Institute of Marine Sciences in Venice for the next few years.
