In 2001, Kura Shomali interrupted his medical studies, and integrated the Academy of Fine Arts of Kinshasa where he took part to the creation of the group EZA possible. He creates works on paper in which he boldly mixes charcoal, ball pen, gouache, ink, marker and collage, which gives a unique aspect and texture to his work. His work is a reflection of the chaotic megalopolis where he lives and that he “digests” as he explains himself. In his most recent works, Kura Shomali appropriates images of well known African photographers and artists that he interprets with humor.
