Cultivating a delirious and humorous universe nourished by the euphoric energy of cartoons, STOM500 is a self-taught virtuoso from a small village in the Swiss municipality of Basel. Trained as a graphic designer, professional illustrator and a renowned graffiti artist for over the past five years, STOM500 has been, as he defines himself with humor, a veritable “Swiss army knife”. Spray, brushes, acrylic … Large murals or small canvases: he uses a variety of mediums and styles with a predilection for animal themes which, under the varnish of pleasure, carry a relevant message, often humanistic or ecological. Like his swirling bees or his seemingly incompatible bestiaries, such as the raven and the fox inspired by La Fontaine’s fables.
