Samuel Eckert is a multidisciplinary artist and creative director based in Pantin, France. His work embraces a spontaneous and refined line, where absurdity meets deceptive naivety. He creates a visual language that plays with words and graphics to engage, captivate, amuse, and sometimes provoke thought.
Between artistic exploration and micro-narratives, his images resonate with a sense of pure enjoyment, adopting joyful irony, playful nonsense, and a liberating simplicity to strip reality bare.
Balancing various techniques and mediums, he blends his personal practice with commissioned projects, addressing identity-related challenges and creating illustrations for a wide range of clients.
He also leads workshops for both children and adults, developing projects that combine micro-narratives with collective creativity.
