Francklin Mbungu (1972) - Ma femme, ma ceinture

Born in 1972 in Kinshasa. He lives and works in the Republic of Congo.
Francklin Mbungu is a surprising artist on the Congolese contemporary scene. Son of an antique dealer, he begins a career as an agent for artists before turning to contemporary art, carving out his own path, far from the traces of the great masters of Congolese popular painting. Francklin wields scissors and glue… He creates distinct cuts in sheets of colored paper, and makes collages on rigid cardboard. Characters emerge, here a street musician, there a dancing couple. Stories are told…
