Biography

My name is Samir El Koss, born in 2001 in Sassuolo, Italy, to an Italian mother and a Moroccan father from Casablanca, I've lived almost all my life in France. I didn't really grow up in an artistic or creative environment, but I've always loved drawing, ever since I can hold a pencil.

To be honest, I didn't come to art, art came to me. Being totally self-taught, I learnt drawing and its various techniques by myself from an early age. The more the years went by, the more my level naturally increased, especially in realism.

I made my first painting in January 2022, due to a desire for change, which will mark the beginning of a new adventure. I make sure that each of my creations conveys a message or emotion, thanks to and via my life experiences, my observations and my vision of the world.

Being very reserved about my feelings, it's through my art that I express what I feel deep down inside.
