ABOUT

Born in 1973, David Nicolas started out as a graffiti artist in France in the 1980s, known then as Numéro 6. A ground breaker in the France graffiti art scene, Numéro 6 was known for his distinctive style. Nicolas went on to study visual arts and film animation in Paris and pursued a career in animation and art direction.

He is also known as Barzolff814, the orchestrator of a UFO hoax video project in Mexico and Haiti that was aired on CNN and reached over 19 million views on YouTube. Since that time, Nicolas has worked under the name Barzolff. His current body of work features playful human portraits, fueled by a compulsion to capture flesh and anonymity simultaneously.
