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.
