The first drawings of LeMoschine were created around 2014, while searching for new subjects for a comic strip, which was supposed to be called Le Moschine, or something like that. The idea was to take up the style of old American cartoons from the 1920s and '30s, the first Mickey Mouse, Felix the Cat, Betty Boop, and so on. I like the bold black lines, the expressive power of those primitive, simple, rough characters. In the end, I did nothing with the strip, I couldn't finish the panels or harmonize the text in the speech balloons. I imagine them more as animated, silent, or accompanied by swing music. Or painted, maybe on wood and canvas. I give it a try. I like the result, and the first series of Moschine is born, which are real flies, ugly and a bit gross, coming out of their cartoons to enter real paintings on canvas, with golden and baroque frames. 

Since the 1990s, a pop surrealist art movement has developed in the United States and then in Europe, drawing its roots from underground comics, punk rock music, and various surf and street cultures. 

They called themselves “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 really wanted to place Le Moschine in an artistic movement, I would say that in lowbrow they could feel at home.
