365 Squares is the manifestation of Moon's impulsive crazy project to draw every day for a year on a 15 x 15 cm square sheet of paper, using a variety of tools such as graphite, colored pencil, inks and watercolours.
This 3rd volume is in the same format as volumes 1 and 2, co-published in 2022 with Éditions Caurette, to maintain the symmetry of this fine collection. It is a marvelous 380-page hardcover art book in 21 x 21 cm (8,2 x 8,2 inches) format. All the illustrations made in 2023 for this project will be reproduced at actual size (15 x 15 cm, or 5,9 x 5,9 inches).
Entering Moon's universe is to let oneself be taken by the hand to discover a world full of vibrant colours, creatures simultaneously both human and vegetable, and discovering the balance between form and nuance. The maxim that a picture is worth a thousand words, were never truer than when in reference to Moon's drawings, which reveal torment, expectation, encounters, doubt... Life in its widest and most vivid emotional range.
Moon began his career as a graffiti artist in the 1990s. After a few years of self-taught drawing, he entered art school, which later led him to work as a graphic design and art director, and then as a graphic design teacher.
Under his pseudonym Moon, he is currently devoted to crafting his own personal universe through illustrations and paintings. His creations are mostly gathered under the moniker: "Polychröm Symbiosis", illustrating this vividly dreamlike and surreal world. Moon expresses his universe through various works of art shared on social media, in galleries via solo or group exhibitions, and of course through art books.
