HENRI ABRAHAM UNIVERS

Born in Paris into a mixed heritage family, Henri Abraham Univers first studied Cinema at the CLCF (Conservatoire Libre du Cinéma Français) in Paris. However, he quickly returned to his childhood love of drawing and painting when he realized those mediums granted him much more artistic freedom. After a stint in New York, Ouagadougou and Paris, he moved to London in 2010. From 2013 he devoted himself to his passion full-time. The following year, in 2014, he was selected to exhibit at the prestigious Summer Exhibition of the Royal Academy of Arts in London. Henri Abraham Univers' paintings are distinguished by cosmological themes and a selection of repeated elements, such as sprinkles of white stars against a black background. They symbolize the sky, which he says is ever present regardless of what is happening in the world, and reference love and the oneness of humanity. His artworks are in private collections in Europe, Africa, Asia and the United States.
