Chanoir became active in the streets of Barcelona at the beginning of Y2K, where he did the documentary Murs Libres. In 2002, he became the founder of Collectif 1980 with other artists such as Jean-Philippe Illanes, Alexandre Sirvin, Hugo Garcia, et Ernest Añaños Montoto.
His father, Gustavo Vejerano, is a painter.
His colorful characters take their roots in the ligne claire and cartoon style. Chanoir gets his inspiration from his childhood in the 80s: the simple lines of Barbapapa, the craziness of Les Shadoks and naïve manga for kids such as Hello Kitty.
Artists like Jean-Michel Basquiat or Keith Haring are obvious references too.
