My name is Léo Cremonese, I am a young French artist passionate about psytrance music and visual art.
This music, with its deep bass, its acid tones and its inherent spiritual dimension, is for me a bearer of images. For more than ten years, this musical genre has shaped my relationship with art and more particularly painting.

I also like photomontage: I assemble a lot of photos between them, then come to paint the light and the details; this gives a very real side to the images. I would like to work in scenography, for mix my paintings with the visual world of psychedelic festivals. I would also like to create CD covers, posters, flyers and any kind of images for various projects revolving around electronic music. I am open to any proposal …
