Biography / THE WA
The Wa is a French visual artist based in Berlin, whose practice is intrinsically
linked with the urban environment. Engaging in a distinct visual language, his
works are relatable, multi-lingual and often comic in their execution. Most of
his pieces have their own clear voice; while others require contextualization
to peel off the layers of meaning and become accessible.
In this work he subversively plays into the stereotypes of the western gaze.
Challenging the appropriation of images, he encourages an empathetic
skepticism towards societal control and comment.
