Biography
My interest in the betterment of the art world led me to the following questions: why is it so hard for talented people to find work, and for employers to hire the right creative mind? Such interrogations made me realize the necessity for a more open and consolidated art community.

J’ai été élevé dans une famille de musiciens professionnels indépendants, ce qui m’a propulsé dans l’industrie des arts à un jeune âge. Travaillant surtout en production et derrière les coulisses, j’ai géré des artistes et lancé des événements et des festivals dont Beast, Jorane, M pour Montreal, Merlin Ettore, Dr Draw, L'Arsenal à Musique et l'événement Chantier libre::Freeland.
Les difficultés rencontrées dans le milieu des arts, dans la recherche de collaborateurs et de travail à temps plein ou à la pige, m’ont laissé perplexe tout au long de mon expérience. Le problème n’est pas un manque d’initiatives ou d’opportunités mais leur invisibilité: les personnes qui travaillent dans les arts ont besoin d’un moyen efficace de connecter. Artfox est une réponse à ce problème et vise à stimuler le réseautage professionnel dans le milieu des arts.

Raphaël, first, is someone endowed with a very deep and natural nobleness that you just don't see often. That add to his creativity and his pasionate way to get involved into a project makes me think that things always get better when Raphaël is around, even if you would already be on top!
