It is at the end of the 80s when MIST discovers the graffiti along the railroads of the RER (Regional Express Rail) by going to his school of graphic art to Paris. Captivated by what he saw, he realizes his graff first one in 1988. His paintings in the slightly acid colors and wildstyle leave nobody indifferent. He is one of the rare to excel at the same time at the drawing of characters and at that letters. In 1998 he develops his work of sculpture and realizes his first character in volume.

In 2001 with his label ” Bonustoys ” he édits his own toys. It becomes then one of the pioneers of what we call ” designer toys “, these small sculptures today in vinyl were produced in edition(publishing) from 100 to 1000 ex. and were sold in toy shops of collection all over the world. The specialists place him in the world top five artists’ side as Kaws and Futura. Today, Mist dedicates himself completely to the sculpture and to the painting in his studio in Montpellier where he lives. His work is inspired by graphic codes of the graffiti and is even well beyond.
