Fabien Maze, mostly known as Xkuz, is an artist born in 1985 in Hauts-de-France region situated in the north of France. Since he was a child he always had an eye for drawing and when he got interested in hip hop culture, he obviously appeared to be into graffiti. He was attracted by the fact that it was illegal, and in 1998 he drew his first tags which were mainly on the walls next to railways or on the main roads of his region. He took a graphic art training in 2008 which appeared to be a turning point in his life as he became more interested in aesthetic than the fact of being seen. Abandoned buildings became his main playground as he could find a sense of liberty and the best conditions to complete his frescos.
