Clément Verdière was born in Marseille in 1990. His passion for art revealed itself at a very early age. At school, he paid little attention in class, being already ensconced in his creative world; thus he immersed himself in drawing and then went on to experiment in a variety of media.
His career as an artist has been punctuated by various trials and tribulations which have left their mark; but he has never given up on his dreams. The scars he bears have helped him to take the plunge and return to his first loves, namely drawing, followed ultimately by painting.
Clément Verdière taught himself, spending hours working, researching and exploring. As an outlet for his feelings, painting came to dominate his work, growing with him until it became his partner, sometimes reassuring, sometimes monstrous.
In 2015 he met Patrick Hugues and Skunkdog – an encounter which acted as an explosive catalyst. He started working in a studio and, in contact with other artists, proceeded to sharpen his perception, thereby finding his identity.
