William Pinçon, known professionally as Zenoy, is a French artist born in 1978. He began his artistic journey in the late 1980s, immersing himself in the burgeoning graffiti scene of Paris. His early work was characterized by a focus on lettering and tagging, which he honed through extensive practice on city walls and trains. Zenoy quickly became a prominent figure within the Parisian graffiti community, developing a distinctive style that combined traditional wildstyle elements with unique graphic flourishes. Throughout the 1990s, Zenoy expanded his repertoire beyond street art, translating his urban aesthetic into studio works. He began to explore various mediums, including canvas, paper, and sculpture, while retaining the energy and visual language of graffiti. His career trajectory reflects a common path for many street artists who transition from ephemeral public interventions to more permanent gallery-based practices, contributing to the broader recognition of graffiti as a legitimate art form. He is associated with crews such as DKC, D77, OPR, and DUC.
