Biography

edit

Early life

edit

Pedrosa was born in Poitiers to a family of Portuguese descent; his grandfather immigrated to France in the 1930s.[1] He wanted to become a drawing artist since his adolescence, studying animation at Gobelins school, then working from 1996 to 1998 at Walt Disney Animation France, as an inbetweener in The Hunchback of Notre Dame and as assistant animator in Hercules.[2][3]

Career

edit

After meeting with David Chauvel, Pedrosa debuted into comics in 1998 with Ring Circus, for which he did art and coloring.[4] A second title followed, Les Aventures spatio-temporelles de Shaolin Moussaka.[5]

In 2006, Pedrosa created his first solo work, the one-shot Les Cœurs solitaires (Hearts at Sea), followed by a second one, Trois ombres (Three Shadows) in 2007. [4] The album won the Angoulême International Comics Festival Essentials award in 2008 [6] and the National Cartoonists Society Division Award in 2009.[7]

He collaborated with the fanzine Le Goinfre and participated, with Cassinelli and Holbé, of the webcomic Cadavres Exquisis from 2004 to 2007.[8] From 2008 to 2009, Pedrosa drew Autobio for Fluide Glacial, a fictionalized ecological-themed autobiography. [9] The comic won the Prix Tournesol (Sunflower Award) in 2009, given by The Greens.[10]

In 2012 he published the semi-autobiographical graphic novel Portugal, about a cartoonist exploring his family roots.[1]

In 2013, he founded, alongside Gwen de Bonneval, Hervé Tanquerelle, Brüno and Fabien Vehlmann, the digital comics magazine Professeur Cyclope.[11]

In 2018 he started the political fantasy graphic novel series The Golden Age (L'Âge d'Or), written by Roxanne Moreil.[12][13]
