BYĆ

Biography

Swiss-based artist, BYĆ, is redefining the landscape of Street and Contemporary Art through his unique artist style which blends elements, using humor and emotion to challenge the status quo and invite reflection on the complexities of contemporary society.

BYĆ's artistic language transcends traditional boundaries from the streets to the grandeur of museums. His vision challenges social norms, questioning the world and navigating a spectrum from mockery to denouncement.

 

A central aspect of BYĆ's mission is to provoke—to stimulate thought, blend elements, and forge connections among people, eras, styles, and perceptions."To be," for BYĆ, is an ongoing pursuit; a constant quest to express, convey, exhibit, and share. In this, he follows in the footsteps of painters he admires, who, through their works, painted their worlds with tenderness, occasional cruelty, and an absence of complacency.

 

BYĆ's art takes a stand against hyper-consumption, advocating for recycling over wastefulness. In the face of intolerance, he introduces humor and emotion, using elements of ugliness and wear and tear as a means to propose reincarnation. Through his unique lens, BYĆ challenges the status quo, creating a dialogue that invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of contemporary society.

 

BYĆ's journey from the streets to museums is not merely a physical transition; it represents a transformation of art's role in society. His work disrupts, questions, and evolves, pushing the boundaries of what art can be and what it can represent.
