About SUPERDEUX www.superdeux.com
SUPERDEUX, aka Sebastien Roux, was born and raised in the south of France, worked and studied in Paris, and currently resides in Lille, France.
With his distinctive brand of lifestyle art, SUPERDEUX has spent the past ten years hopping the gap between the art and commercial worlds, producing slick motion graphics, funky characters, and pop-tastic logos for major brands such as MTV and Sony, while at the same time developing his own popular series of vinyl toys and drawing crowds to gallery shows across Europe.
SUPERDEUX’s work has been featured in books and magazines in France, Germany, Hong Kong, Australia, the US, Canada, and he has worked in collaboration with talented forces including Phunk Studio, 123Klan, Stardust, Genevieve Gauckler, Bill Mc Mullen, Staple Design, Interspectacular and Pictoplasma to pursue his goal of exploring various mediums of communicating his particular urban sensibility.
