A few words about your artistic journey

After an artistic training at the Regional Conservatory of Arts and Crafts in Abengourou (Côte d´Ivoire), I currently live and work in Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). I am the father of three children and own my own studio. My daily passions are mainly art paintings and graphic design.

How long have you been an artist?

I have been working as a visual artist for 14 years.

Why did you apply for this grant? How will this grant support you?

My project is to create works without making use of technical and academic materials, using only the cardboard packaging as the main medium of expression as well as natural and / or food pigments to make works .

What are your concrete artistic objectives after this residency?

I want to open up to the world and share my vision of the plastic arts, in particular art painting without a brush, canvas or acrylic tubes or other academic standards.
