Meet Mounya Kecha.
Mounya Kecha -a socially conscious artist.
It was a great pleasure interviewing Arts and Culture Network full member and artist Mounya Kecha (AKA Dylaks) recently with the help of ACN ambassador Vincent Messelier to overcome my lack of French. Listen on Spotify here.
Born in Mulhouse in France, Mounya Kecha has journeyed through a diverse and dynamic artistic career. With a solid foundation in traditional education, Kecha earned a BAC in mathematics and philosophy, with a specialisation in visual arts.
Her academic pursuits led her to obtain a diploma in Social Work, where she dedicated 12 years of her life, while later transitioning into the world of design by completing a work-study program in Graphic Design, focusing on visual communication and multimedia. She now works as a freelance graphic designer and artist.
Kecha’s passion for visual expression deepened through formal training in painting at Arpajon and drawing classes at the Louvre Museum in Paris.
This blend of theoretical and practical experience underpins her creative approach, shaped by her understanding of art history, regular visits to museums, art centres, and exhibitions, alongside hands-on exploration of different artistic techniques.
Specialising in acrylic and spray paint, Kecha also works with oil, Indian ink, and charcoal, among other mediums. Her compositions are often sparked by photographic inspiration or spontaneous, serendipitous creations that evoke a feeling of déjà vu.
These works are more than aesthetic expressions, they often delve into themes close to her heart, such as the human condition, environmental issues, and societal relationships. Through her work, she invites viewers to engage emotionally and reflect on these important subjects.
Kecha’s artistic voice is heavily influenced by modern and contemporary art, pop rock, hip hop culture, street art, and graffiti, as well as cinema and television. She actively promotes graffiti as a legitimate art form, participating in collective mural projects and competitions. Her murals, commissioned or collaborative, aim to bring art into the public eye, turning walls into platforms for creative expression and open dialogue, much like an alternative to advertising.
In blending the artistic with the sociological and scientific, Kecha’s work serves dual purposes: to create striking visual art and to communicate meaningful messages, making art both a personal and public experience.not your average creative soul. She’s a New York based whirlwind of artistic prowess, an embodiment of curiosity, and a champion of creativity in all its most rebellious forms.
