Two years after receiving his diploma from the elite school des Beaux Arts in 1984, Fichot was awarded the contemporary art prize Jean ARP given by Jean Bazaine and Philippe Piguet along with the sculpture award from the Florence BLUMENTHAL franco-american foundation in 1989 after having been selected by Jean Bazaine and Yvon Lambert.Inspired by his interactions with Etienne Martin, Etienne Hajdu, Robert Couturier and Nils Udo after attending an international Land Art Symposium in Sylt, he was particularly taken by the works of Jean ARP, Joan MIRO, Henri MATISSE and Anthony CRAGG.

Fichot has frequent exhibitions in Galleries, Fairs and Museums both in France and abroad (Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, USA and Japan). Identifying with no particular school of art, Fichot admits to the influential effects that various Artists have had on his work. In his work, Fichot identifies more with the visual than the conceptual, working essentially by the mediation of reflection and action in his creative process.

Like all Artists, Fichot created his language in style by using the deformation and repetition of forms in an attempt to find new situations in space. It is in his direct contact with artistic mediums and materials that these new situations in space are found.
