About the artist
Gonçalo Mabunda His sculptures are born from objects of destruction; weapons and arms from the past wars, now come back to life to bring a transformative message. While denouncing the absurdity of war, these sculptures convey a positive reflection on the transformative power of art and the resilience and creativity of African civilian societies. Mabunda highlights the tragedy of modern history while opening a new chapter of beauty and hope.
