French born artist, Joey Villemont, moved to Glasgow in September 2009 to do his Masters in Fine Arts at Glasgow School of Art.

Joey considers himself as a “shaper” or a “builder”, in the way he crafts and builds things with a non-standard idea producing artefacts that in a way talk to each other, questioning and answering their own shared activity, presence and value.

Joey has alot ahead of himself in the near future: “I’ll have one fresh artwork (LES REVEURS) exhibited as part of the MFA degree show at CCA opening on the 14th of June (in Oliver Braid’s display).

NATURE BOY is my new project which will be on display at Mulhouse 010 art fair in France starting the 13th of June, Which I could describe as ‘the meeting between Kurt Cobain, Eden Ahbez and Henry David Thoreau and animals under a bridge in Aberdeen.’

I’m in the process of opening a wild exhibition space in Glasgow with my partner Camille in 2010, to bring French and European and international blood in our city along with locals !

(I am also) launching a brand new way of curating on the internet in the first half of june 2010, another surprise !”
