Ceet Fouad is a prominent figure in the contemporary urban art scene, recognized primarily for his vibrant and whimsical approach to graffiti. Born in Algeria and raised in France, his artistic journey began in the late 1980s during the burgeoning graffiti movement in Toulouse. He initially focused on traditional lettering and tags before evolving his style into a more figurative and character driven narrative. This transition led to the creation of his most iconic motif: the "Chicanos" chickens. These colorful, round, and expressive birds have become his signature, symbolizing a playful critique of societal behavior and the chaotic nature of human interaction.

His work often explores themes of globalization, cultural identity, and the fast-paced nature of modern life. By utilizing bold lines and a saturated color palette, he creates high-energy compositions that bridge the gap between street culture and fine art. Over the decades, his influence has expanded globally, leading him to relocate to Hong Kong, where he became a key player in the Asian street art community. This move further infused his work with international perspectives and diverse urban influences.

Beyond walls and canvases, his creativity extends to sculpture and high profile collaborations with major international brands. He has successfully navigated the transition from underground street artist to a respected figure in major galleries and art fairs. Despite his commercial success, he remains dedicated to the spontaneous and public roots of graffiti, often participating in festivals and community projects that celebrate the accessibility of art for everyone.
