Axel Champloy “Dessins du jour”

A young artist from Hyères, Axel Champloy is known for sketching the local landscape and events directly from life. You’ve probably already come across him with his mobile studio, which he carries everywhere he goes. He has designed a tablet with straps that enables him to draw standing up, moving among the crowds as he captures their gestures and voices. He draws, writes and creates watercolors on small sheets that he assembles into travel journals.

In 2023, he was invited by the Villa Noailles to capture the highlights of the Centenary program. The exhibition features almost 20 meters of drawings, covering the International Festival of Fashion, Photography and Accessories, the Design Parade festivals in Hyères and Toulon, and the opera “Ressusciter la rose”. For the Annexe, Axel Champloy changes scale and paints large-format portraits of artists close to Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles.
