Kudzanai-Violet Hwami

Meer over het boek

Kudzanai-Violet Hwami (*1993, Zimbabwe) combines visual fragments in her paintings, revealing a multi-layered and personal vision of life. She experiments with photographs and digital image collages, using them to create large-scale works on paper or canvas with intensely pigmented oil paint, often employing other media and techniques such as silkscreen, pastel or charcoal. She draws her inspiration from a variety of sources, including archival, online or nude images, but also personal photographs, such as self-portraits or family pictures.
