Tian is a French painter and Streetartist. He was born in le Mans in 1964 and grew up in the workers city of Allonnes. In 1982, he founded the Punk-Reggae band NUCLEAR DEVICE, which, worn by the alternative movement, plays intensely on the French scene until 1989. In 1990, with the band called MEGA REEFER SCRATCH, he recorded the album « Honky Soul Times » on Sony Music. From 1993, Tian is getting more involved in picture : he works as a graphic designer, a webdesigner, then an artistic director. From 2004, the work of Tian slides from the screen to the canvas : he put his skills of photographer and graphic designer at the service of painting. Therefor, he appropriates the silkscreen and stencil technique. He participates to several fairs and develops its visibility on the web. In 2007 he starts to decline his work in the street, using paper collage. Thus, he pastes his streetart in London, Paris or New York and participates in many collective actions. Since 2009, as the crisis affects the art market and therefore the daily life of emerging artists, Tian develops alternative strategies, organizing his own exhibitions, selling his works on the web, and improving his international presence. in 2011, the Artists’ Residency « Espace Provisoire » enables him to tackle the mural to a very large size. This residence of three months allows the artist to anchor deeply in the local scene and foreshadows the success of the exhibition of year-end at Kamaleon. 2013 is a successful year, with commissioned works for big french companies, like a series about the « Tour de France » for AG2R. In 2014, after a fruitful show at Galerie K, he decides to take the road again and makes a street art tour over east Europe. Visiting Łódź. to see the mural paintings, he feels that it would be the perfect place for a new Artists’ Residency. So, he’s back in summer for a 2 months residence in Księży Młyn and enjoy it so much he decides to be back in spring 2015 for a new 2 months period. 2015 : Second residency in Lodz, First exhibition in Poland.
