Ulysse Mayoud is a street artist and painter from France. He studied photography at CE3P and graphic arts at MJM in Paris. Ulysse’s world-building art is expressed through his character ‘Gréké’. His imagined Grékésianism is a pictorial and philosophical movement that advocates individual freedom, mutual respect, and a deeper sense of self and the world.
