Felix Morel

Felix Morel is a Montréal based musician and collage artist born on June 4, 1976 at Lakeshore General Hospital in Pointe-Claire, Québec, Canada. At the age of 9 years old he won a fake gold medal at the Cascades Inc. Calendar Contest for his drawing depicting a skateboarder going down a hill. His collage work is a mix of technological, erotic and gory imagery, often in the form of imaginary album sleeves, paperback book covers or movie posters. Composed of precisely arranged magazine cuttings they picture colorful and surreal fantasies fueled by trance states and the meticulous act of cutting and layering images and symbols into a total whole artwork. Morel is self taught both in his musical and visual art practices.
