Aiiroh defines himself as a street artist, but also a pop artist "in the original sense of "popular", who gives life to street culture", according to the creator's own words. His work is inspired by that of artists such as Raymond Hains (whose famous 1961 exhibition "France in Shreds" obsessed him as a young creator), Villeglé, Dufrêne, Rotella and Robert Indiana. In his language, Aiiroh incorporates elements of popular culture, such as well-known international firms that remind us of society's dependence on consumer products. Visually, his works are very aesthetic because they seek the contrast of the black background with the multitude of colors that form the emblems. His work is no longer political but optimistic: he offers jovial messages including iconic cartoon characters and portraits of celebrities. He has exhibited in about twenty galleries both in France and on the international scene (Switzerland, Italy, United Kingdom, Greece, Israel, United States, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan).
