SAEIO

Born in 1987 in Paris, SAEIO was a maverick on the contemporary graffiti scene. 

The Parisian graffiti artist SAEIO (1987–2017) is known for his “broad pictorial practice” through which he engages with the everyday reality of urban space. By embracing various forms of expression (writing, drawing, painting, photography, video, choreography, etc.), he highlights the unpredictable nature inherent in this illegal art form and the ephemeral nature of these works created in public spaces. 

He died in 2017 at the age of 29, and during his lifetime he exhibited his work both in France and abroad (Germany, Japan, Brazil, etc.). His artistic practice was radical and defied the conventions of graffiti.
