oscar mathieu le bussy (1997) is a pluridisciplinary art worker based in brussels, be



he draws, writes, performs, tattoos, sews, translates, facilitates, researches. 


his autobiographically inspired work evokes questions linked to his experience as a gender non-conforming being, precisely a trans faggot, between the risk of revealing oneself and the urgency of doing so. addressing issues in which the bodies are the main actoresses and transitions the main driving forces, he passes through different mediums while taking pleasure in blending fantasy and realness, gentleness and vulgarity.
