BORN AND RAISED

Thomas Fotomas

Thomas Pitois or “Thomas Fotomas”was born in the 1980s near Paris and grew up in Hossengor. As a surfer himself, Fotomas is famous for his works which combine together the photos and art,where he draws the lines with a pen on graphic tablet onto his photography. Fotomas creates his own style of art. He chooses his subjects of his photos from both amateur and professional surfers, and what makes his works so special is his choice of light, sandbanks, barrels, and good style on the board, especially taken at the sunset time. Fotomas doesn’t like to travel much to create his works, but rather prefers to represent local places. For him, the balances of elements, beauty and simplicity that inspire his works can be found around himself
