34 Year Old , FaFi , started as a Graffiti Artist...


Born and raised in Toulouse France, Fafi's strong presence in the graffiti and fine arts scene was first noticed on her hometown walls in 1994. Back then, as she was painting and hustling, her sexy, funny, and sometimes aggressive girl characters made the whole world look and help kick-start a whole new graphic language; by exploring feminity through stereotypes, and using it to her advantage, she created enormous attention and then started traveling the world (Europe, USA, Japan, Hong-Kong). Soon enough Sony would ask her to design a six-character toy set for the Time Capsules collection, an almost natural move for her three-dimensional measures. There are also numerous expositions and collaborations with Colette, Adidas, LeSportSac, Coca-Cola, M.A.C cosmetics and countless press stories in the most prestigious magazines (ie. Vogue, Elle, The Face, XLR8R, Yen etc...).Animation is her middle name.
