About this title

About the Author

Aurélien Débat was born in France in 1979. He lives and works in Marseille. After graduating in illustration at Les Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg, he wrote and illustrated children's books. In his more recent work, Débat uses printed images, volumes, installations, objects and toys to explore the relationship between design, architecture and illustrations. His Stampville project proposes a whole set of ready-to-stamp adventure pictograms, buildings and urban elements: a graphic alphabet allowing the user to build real or imaginary cities. Aurélien Débat's images, sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract, question dimensional representation of urban space.
