Maxim Issaev and Pavel Semtchenko both have a background in visual art and photography.
As joint leaders of Axe Groupe, they are sometimes joined by fellow artists.
The company originally began as a street theatre project, but their inspirations have since expanded to embrace the broad sweep of history and societal traditions.
They reject any analysis of their creations that prioritises certain elements over others (the problem with much art criticism, in their view), and insist that their work is about “creating connections without attempting to deliver any message."
