Concept

I am a self-taught artist who has a unique perspective on life, art and culture that is influenced by my passion as an artist as well as personal conflicts and struggles. Through different activities, I experienced the great impact art can have on individuals as well as on communities. For me it is important that art serves the people and supports them. I have been ventured into the digital world such as creating virtual exhibitions, video games, and as well digital painting to which I transformed my visions into something concrete in the material world. Therefore, I consider my work as an artist as a way to make a positive contribution for more peace and unity in the world. My artworks evoke emotions that are drawn from my history as a Rwandan-African and diversity as a traveler. Besides creating, I have founded different organizations and an art space

Biography

Niyonkuru Bruce ‘’Canda” is an interdisciplinary international Rwandan based artist born in Burundi in 1992. He started to paint in 2011 and decided to become a full time artist in 2013. To him, art is a moving force in history, a creating force of development and a way to explore and experience freedom. In his work, Canda is moving smoothly from fantasy imagination into reality matters to which helps him create a unique holistic style using horror and utopia elements. He is fascinated with the dualist nature of humans as agents of creation and destruction, as living archives and as creators of history. Therefore, most of his work resolves around a humanoid image.

Canda has organized and participated in several international and national art exhibitions:
Few selected:
2020 Virtual exhibition “Mind and Space” with Kuuru art space Kigali,Rwanda.
2019 Graduation of school of summer with a group exhibition at SAVVY contemporary Berlin, German.
2017 Exposition d’art contemporaine d’Afrique Khourigba, Morocco
2017 Festival du cinema Africain Khourigba, Morocco.
2016 Vernissage at Mainz Musik School Mainz, Germany.
2016 Vernassage at Waggonfabrik Mainz, Germany.
