"Every piece opens up a dream world where you can write your own story."

MAM is a French artist who has had a love for art and design since she was little. Drawing and painting brought out her creative side. She wanted to be a fashion designer but went down another avenue in the end. Her love for design never left her though. When she started university, she enrolled at fine arts college to train in figurative painting and character design. Her career took off when a hotel and restaurant manager showed an interest in her pieces through a mutual friend. Word of mouth got the ball rolling and MAM was asked to take part in fairs and exhibit her work in France and abroad. She naturally decided it was time to open her studio where visitors can meet her and see her work.

MAM draws inspiration from the people around her and her childhood memories. She observes and grows every day as she filters day-to-day situations through her sense of humour, joy, colours and how she sees the world and life. The artist uses acrylic and collage to capture her feelings and share her energy with the audience. She loves French idioms and word play and has just created a character called "Pote" based on a song she sang as a child. Her trademark has become her fun-filled characters in a colourful and joyful street art style. MAM's pieces are full of life and colour, inspired by Basquiat, Picasso and Keith Haring.
