ARDIF

ARDIF is a french artist who deals with mechanics behind living entities.

His drawings mostly present animals, which become a mechanical being. His animals are divided indeed: While the one side is completely natural, the second half portrays a transformation with mechanical and architectural elements. The contrast between this binary opposition creates an engaging tension for the viewer.
Above that, ARDIF enlarges his drawings and introduces them as Paste Ups into the street.
By now, Paris’ urban image cannot be thought of without the divided natural and mechanical animals.
