Artist Biography

Born in 1977 in Paris, Jonas, known as "SUN 7", lives and works in Paris.

"SUN 7 is clearly a child of crossings and overlaps between word and image, poetry and colour, art and the street. At the dawn of the 1990s, he discovered the world of New York tags. Spray can in hand, he attacks the skin of the walls, from Paris to New York. He multiplies performances and interventions in Paris, Lyon and Marseille, then in Shanghai, Hong-Kong and Jakarta.... He then uses canvas, panels, metal plates... His register is mixed under multiple influences: action painting, negro art, Maori tattoos. But it is the word that dominates. A mesh of words, most often indecipherable and which, put together, compose portraits and self-portraits. Obvious portraits and coded texts, a subtle game of appearance/disappearance, where calligraphy, glyphs, ideograms, are de-realized, leaving mystery hovering. »
