A conversation with Kuda Mushangi - born Zimbabwe, and raised in England - Mushangi is a figurative artist currently practicing in London, England. Mushangi immigrated to the UK with his family at the age of 9. Now a practicing architect, Mushangi rediscovered his boyhood passion for visual art as an escape from the rigidity of his career and its requirements. Mushangi is a relatively new painter, and his debut project is conjuring and recording the vague and vanishing memories of his early youth in Zimbabwe. Like all childhood memories, Mashangi’s scenes balance innocence, confusion, and disproportionality - all while rendered in a style that nods to a childlike interpretation.
