Benji
Sculptor
Inspired as much by the world of comics, fashion and design as by Banksy-style hijackings, Benjamin Faujanet, also known as Benji, is above all a designer who is constantly experimenting with new media and techniques according to his inspiration. Pencil, charcoal, watercolor, marker, spray paint, acrylic, resin, clay... he sublimates each material corresponding to a specific need which allows him to go further in his creations.
From his training in industrial design, he has kept the requirement and the rigor. From his apprenticeship in pastry making, he has retained the taste for gourmet and colorful creations. And from his childhood, the wonderment in front of Mickey, Donald and the Simpson cartoons, later his passion for Keith Haring and Dali. Benjamin Faujanet was born in 1985; he lives and works in Marseille.
