Appolinaire Guidimbaye Doff
B.1983, lives & works in N'djamena, Chad
Appolinaire is a mixed media artist whose mission is to give new life to abandoned objects or objects destined for destruction. He juxtaposes abandonment and destruction against timelessness, and uses destroyed abandoned objects as tools to create timeless sculptures.
He places people at the center of his work by exploring values that have endured. His work showcases that Africa, with its traditions and customs, its humanism and shortcomings, is more alive than ever.
Exhibition opens on November 30th at 18:00 and runs until March 30th 2024
