French painter born in 1983, Jazzu is the signature of a self-taught artist whose modesty borders on shyness. Jazzu paints as he breathes, beyond filiations, currents and codes. It is therefore probably the vitality and sincerity of his gesture, which has already led gallery owners and salesmen to make his paintings cohabit with those of Combas or Speedy Graphito. No posture in his painting, no premeditation, Jazzu is an instinctive who works on the feeling in an alchemy of colours and materials dictated by his subjects. Carried by the need to translate what he perceives of the cultural and political current events of our time, one could say of his painting that it is raw in the primitive sense of the act yet it knows how to be sensual in texture, sometimes even epidermal, so much human in the line.
