Mahé
I was born on the island of Mahé, Seychelles in 1963 and spent my childhood on the island of La Digue. I currently live and work in Seychelles.
MessageRenowned Seychellois artist. Have contemporary artworks exhibited at some of the world’s most prestigious international art biennales including Venice, Dakar, and Beijing. Grand prize winner of the Seychelles Biennale in 2017. Over the years exhibited extensively in Seychelles, the Indian Ocean Islands, Europe, Africa and China. Most recent solo exhibition was held in Rome in June, 2023.
Founder of the two most active art NGOs in Seychelles, Arterial Network Seychelles and Seychelles Art Foundation, which help to foster a vibrant artistic community and various platforms encouraging creativity, innovation, and cultural exchange. Currently chairman of Seychelles Art Foundation, treasurer of African Cultural Fund and committee member of Alliance Français Seychelles.
My work probably asks more questions than it answers; I investigate, explore and respond to life cycles and processes through my art, interrogating my modest place within the scheme of things and in so doing I strive to deepen my personal connection with the forces prevalent in my environment.
Accepting commissions and custom orders, hope to hear from you!
