Samsofy

I am Sofiane Samlal or Samsofy, a plastician photographer from Lyon born in 1981. I began my work in extreme sports photography in urban areas.

Under the influence of geek culture, my artistic approach is now focused around the very appreciated small yellow characters.

I combine the techniques of photography, street art, model making and installation to deliver a message, which often mixes politics, humor and poetry.

In my microcosmos I like to play with scales and matter in order to alter perception. I try to take pictures that mixes the extremely big and the microscopic to help the naked eye discover what one can’t see usually.
