Reposted from @ycfnow - #WEARECONGOCREATIVES | ART | Zemba Luzamba | Metamorphoses, 2019, Oil on Canvas | __ __ Born in 1973 in Lubumbashi, Democratic Republic of the Congo. Lives and works in Cape Town, South Africa. Zemba Luzamba's eloquent oil paintings of everyday life encourage viewers to draw their own conclusions. Focussed on rendering scenes that depict the leisure activities of the black middle classes as well as the hardships experienced by migrants, Luzamba recreates scenes of crowded residences, border crossings, and profiles of exhausted workers and students. Inspired by photographs he’s taken and sketches he’s made over the years, Luzamba’s work stops just short of overt commentary. He provides lifelike accounts of ordinary subjects, allowing the viewer to draw their own conclusions. | Source: www.designindaba.com | __ #ycfnow #gentlemenofcongo #congoart #congoleseart @i_Lex_Project - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/Byu68vAB-81/?igshid=1fq0kw62y36vt
