M. LASSERRE is born in Nice in the early 80s and has shown a passion for all forms of arts since his very early years.

A child of the era of the Internet and the new technologies, he has explored ways of integrating digital technologies through arts since his teens. During that period, he has produced various paintings and works of art using the symbolic representation and graphic strength of the binary. His early abstract work also includes computer and pictorial elements; at that period, he grew fond of auteur and experimental cinema.

It was during that period that he took on Lucy(-x) as his artist name.
