Deslions French painter & Cryptoartist founder of the Street Comics Art movement
Severine Deslions is a rebel whose presence is felt in each step of staging her character “Speed Boy”, the superhero she has created through her struggles …
Partly borrowed from the world of comics and inspirationally fed from Basquiat, De Kooning or Miro, Speedboy marks the paintings with his presence; a kind of consciousness surrounded by the black line so much liked by Keith Haring…
Armed to fight injustice and to bring back a touch of humanity to our world. “Speed Boy” offers us a reassuring and protective support. Like a Big Brother to the artist, he seems to scout the way while protecting her.
