Who we are?

Télescopique is a visual artists band based in north of France.
They work on high level graphics the day, play bad music with friends the night and produce visual art with their hands the rest of time.

For almost 25 years, Sébastien Delobel, Stéphane Meurice and Xavier Meurice have been pursuing a dual creative activity: one resolutely artistic and protean, the other centred on graphic design and its various applications.  
What sets them apart is their single signature. They create their works with six hands and sign them TELESCOPIQUE.
Obviously entitled Série ‘3’, their first painting exhibition immediately set the tone for their free and joyful approach.
The figuration is certainly free, as will be the following series, L’humour & l’art. Joyful because the artists give free rein to their respective imaginations, with little concern for what people will say.
This watchword will be the hallmark of a singular studio that, in the course of its productions, demonstrates an open-mindedness that knows no bounds.
Figuration meets abstraction, typography interferes with sculpture. L'Atelier Télescopique fires on all cylinders, putting to the test an irrepressible desire to create that ignores genres and schools.
The recent 1984 and Ghost series inaugurated a new plastic language, which blossoms in the latest productions, Fuse and Just Human. On paper and canvas, drawing, painting and typography dialogue frenetically and rigorously, echoing the cacophonous rumours of the ‘world as it is’.
