BIO

KASHINK's work questions aesthetic codes and the definition of identity. The artist considers herself an activist, practicing a form of public art.
For over the past fifteen years, she has particularly developed her work in street art, via murals or exhibitions, and has obtained international recognition.

Their large-scale, diversity-conscious murals have been painted in Paris, Morocco, Miami, New York, Los Angeles and other various other cities throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. 

Since 2013, they has worn a mustache drawn on their upper lip like two lines that are often seen above one’s eyes or placed as eyeliner. It is as much about an artistic bias, shaking up gender codes, a daily performance, as it is an activist sociological experiment, creating a social bond around deep questions such as normativity or freedom.

She is regularly invited to speak at universities, which to date include Nanterre, La Sorbonne, Michigan University or for talks such as TEDx.

The Huffington Post named her first in a list of “10 Women Street Artists Who Are Better Than Bansky” in September 2014.

Street Art has allowed her pertinent social message to be accessed by a broad audience. The book the artist is currently writing, in addition to the short films and music performances she has been creating for the past 3 years, remain coherent with her practice of public art.
