Born in 1975 in Moxico, Angola, Angel Ihosvanny Cisneros Felicidade is an autodidact artist who lives and works in Barcelona and Luanda. He transits between painting, video and installation and approaches in his works the physical chaos and the psychic experiences of urbanism. The urban landscape of Luanda provides a constant source of material for Ihosvanny’s work: scenes of disorder and prison are transmuted and synthesized into a reflective visual lexicon. His work was included in exhibitions at the Jewish Museum of New York (USA), Museum of Modern Art of Bahia (Brazil), 11th Havana Biennial of Art, (Cuba); Triennale of Luanda (Angola); and the African Pavilion at the 52nd Venice Biennial (Italy), among others. He is also a member of the so-called Movimento dos Nacionalistas, a visual arts movement in Angola.
