Mara

Born in Morocco in 1995, MARA is an artist living and working in France. After studying visual communications, he decided to devote himself fully to his passion, drawing his knowledge and inspiration from observing the city, graffiti, torn posters and the works of street artists. Today, this urban influence is reflected in his creations, where brutalism and street art aesthetics merge with more traditional techniques. MARA's style is a complex blend of various artistic currents. His work is characterized by the use of a character with an X for a face. One of MARA's strengths lies in his ability to comment on contemporary social and political realities through his art. MARA has produced works in several other cities, including Paris, Meknes, Florence, Berlin, Rio de Janeiro and New York.
