SAMURAI IOKI

Erick Artik invites us into his pop culture background, a brilliant mixt of strength and elegance, humor and refinement. He is determined to tame the spontaneity of his intrinsic inspiration to Street Art to deliver us a gallery of luminous and impactful portraits. These charismatic and generous characters, emblematic of pop culture, willingly take part in the game of the wild inspiration of this prolific artist who paints as he breathes. Like an author developing his subject over several chapters, Erick Artik composes series. The paintings interact, each one as part of a whole, emerging from the previous and source of the next. The Geishas: A romance between tradition and rebellion, timeless beauties, draped in their magnificent traditional costumes. They challenge us.
