Originally from the south of France, Mickaël studied at Les Beaux-Arts, the most prestigious French art school. He is an accomplished graphic artist, filmmaker, photographer, writer, music composer, and poet. His passion for music led him to join several bands as a singer-songwriter, achieving moderate success in the UK and even securing a top 3 hit on the Icelandic charts.

Mickaël enjoys experimenting with different art mediums, including drawing, painting, graphic design, photography,  and… plastic!  He seeks beauty but is not attached to the form: It’s all about telling a meaningful story and expressing emotions while using the right tool at the right time. Film has been an important part of this mission because it seamlessly combines visual, musical, and narrative elements. His films, both fiction and documentary, have received critical acclaim, won numerous awards, and been screened at over 150 festivals in 45 countries, including major festivals like Cannes and LA Shorts Fest.

For Mickaël , Art is more than a job or passion; it is a tool for expressing deep emotions, inspiring others, and ultimately creating a better world. As the founder of Plastic Angels, he has spent the past four years fighting to provide the children of Suwung with daily meals, clean water, and access to education, using art as a force for transformation.
