Lionel Scoccimaro’s ‘Skate Moss’ is a skateboard replication of his 2009 piece art piece of the same name manufactured in Neon tube light and plexiglass, rendered here as a skateboard graphic. Lionel Scoccimaro was born in Marseilles in 1973. Still based in Marseilles, the sculptor, surfer and biker explores the ways in which globalisation brings the margins from what was once counterculture, such as surfing, skateboarding, and motorcycling, to the centre. He is an iconoclast who broke with cherished values and traditions, by doing so becoming a style icon. His work bridges the gap between ‘low culture’ and the high Art world.
