In 2015, he created the series "Le Chevalier des sables" (Sarbacane) with Robin Raffalli. In 2016, the publication of "Sur les ailes du monde" (Dargaud) marked the end of a long collaboration with Jérémie Royer around the painter Jean-Jacques Audubon.

After hesitating for a while about studying medicine, Clément Fabre plunged into cinema. He worked as a camera assistant for almost 10 years.
In the mid-2000s, he added the initial C. to his name and reoriented himself towards comics. Initially, his projects arose from encounters, such as with Martin Page ("Le Banc de touche, " Warum!, 2012), Olivier Milhaud ("Explicite, " Delcourt, 2015), Fabien Grolleau ("Le Chantier, " Marabulles, 2018), Benoist Simmat and Aymeric Mantoux ("Révolutionnaires, " RobinSon, 2018), and Joseph Safieddine ("Salade tomate oignon, " Lapin, 2021).

In 2022, Clément worked on his first solo project, "Carole" (Dargaud; Europe Comics in English). In this graphic novel, he questions his Armenian-Turkish origins and the mystery of intergenerational transmission. Other than visual arts, Clément is passionate about 60's garage rock'n'roll and quantum physics.
