I’m Nyzar Trabxlsi (NZX) an art director and multidisciplinary artist from Tunis and based in Detroit. I work in graphic design, digital illustration, video editing, motion design, fashion and more. I’m also the founder of an experimental atelier and streetwear brand called “Fichier Caché” based in North Africa.
My clients include non-profit organizations, public institutions, businesses, entrepreneurs, international media outlets and individuals.
I’m a lover of underground and counterculture; I have been casted as art director for a number of music videos and album cover designs for celebrated North African artists. Through my art, I coalesce colorful imagery with dark humor to elucidate the nuances of Maghrebi-Arab identity and culture. I am inspired by the flaws of society and the obstacles that creatives, in North Africa specifically and in the Global South more broadly, face amidst capitalism and inequality.
