The Franco-Congolese artist Kouka paints its Bantus warriors relentlessly, creates a symbol : the guardian of the key values of humanity. Major artist of the residence Jardin Rouge at Marrakesh, he presents his last works during the event “Back against the wall”.
Kouka use to come in residence at Jardin Rouge since 2012, he presented his first research in May 2015 about the Bantus warriors, frontal, strong and peaceful.
In his artistic reflection, Kouka paints for his second residency the back of Bantus. The viewer is no longer in front of the work of art but with it, through it, a beautiful listening appears. Bantus protect us, we are by their side, facing the world and facing ourselves.
