The first drawings of LeMoschine were born around 2014, while looking for new subjects for a comic strip, which was supposed to be called Le Moschine, or something similar. The idea was to revisit the style of old American cartoons from the '20s and '30s, like the first Mickey Mouse, Felix the Cat, Betty Boop, etc. I like the strong black lines, the expressive power of those primitive, simple, raw characters. In the end, I didn't do anything with the strip; I couldn't finish the panels and harmonize the text in the speech balloons. I imagine them more animated, silent, or accompanied by swing music. Or painted, perhaps on wood and canvas. I try. I like the result, and the first series of Moschine is born, which are real flies, ugly and a bit disgusting, that come out of their cartoons to enter real paintings on canvas, with golden and baroque frames. 

In the 1990s, an art movement developed in the United States that draws its roots from underground comics, punk rock music, and various surf and street cultures. 

They self-defined as “lowbrow,” literally translatable as “low forehead,” in opposition and contrast to art with a supposedly higher intellectual profile defined as highbrow, “high forehead.”

Well, if we wanted to place Le Moschine in some art movement, this one would seem fitting to me.
