Mr. Hobz (a.k.a Benoit Robin) started out in the Parisian graffiti and street art scene in the mid 1990s, but in the intervening 20 years has taken his work inside as well as out, exhibiting in solo and group exhibitions around France and around the world. Saying he takes inspiration from such varied pop-culture touchstones as Conan the Barbarian, Terminator, Supervixens and Franco-Belgian comics magazine Fluide Glacial, Hobz has developed a singular eye for unique composition. He lives and works in Paris, France.
