Pierre Poux is a French illustrator based in Nantes. After graduating in graphic design from Olivier de Serres (ENSAAMA) in Paris and completing an internship in London, which enriched his artistic perspective, he moved to Nantes. There, he established himself as a freelance illustrator, developing a distinctive visual language through a variety of personal projects, solo exhibitions, participation in collective shows, collaborations and commissioned works. Since 2017, he has showcased his artworks at numerous illustration and art fairs, allowing him to connect with a broader audience. In 2023, he began teaching illustration at a graduate school, sharing his passion and expertise with students. His artistic practice merges illustration and graphic design with tattooing, a discipline he began exploring in 2020.

“I started illustration by creating highly detailed pencil compositions, focused on my curiosity about technique and texture. Through personal and commissioned projects, my line became more refined, giving rise to a distinctive visual language shaped by the narrative and intention behind each image. I’ve found a balance between rich, textured compositions and an expressive style that supports the narrative. Today, my work is defined by generous, dynamic forms build with confident curves, inspired by classical painting and the aesthetic of 50’s cartoons. Through these elements, I create expressive images that tell stories and evoke a unique atmosphere for each project.”
