With a passion for exploring the boundaries of visuals and sounds, J3ZZ’s artistic journey is characterized by a fusion of genres and a commitment to creative experimentation. Drawing inspiration from improvised music, electronic ambient, and the traditional rhythms of Maloya, J3ZZ creates immersive and captivating visual & sonic experiences that transport listeners to new realms of imagination.

“I see myself as a protean author artist, as much as a performer, violinist, composer, producer, visual and sound designer as in the themes of my work, where the themes of gathering and legitimacy constantly intersect with those of dialogue and code sharing. This permeability is also part of the artist and engineer in me, bringing a know-how acquired through multiple experiences around the world.”

“I develop artistic, technological and social projects that transmit, in a roundabout way, knowledge and values, which raise questions about our environment. My creative process is part of a social, cultural and artistic approach. My desire is to develop actions accessible to all, documented, rich and synonymous with discovery and dialogue.”

“I believe that arts, culture, education and science are the best way to grow and live in society. My artistic research consists of creating a bridge between humans and Nature, experimenting and playing through various mediums such as conferences, online tools, workshops, installations in festivals and cities to give a chance to see and to consciously appreciate our environment as a society and to inspire self-change first in our daily lives and then in our political and economic environments.”
