L’enga Kingo Hugor

Born in 1998 in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Hugor L’enga Kingo is a painter. Since he was a kid, he belonged to a workshop of art in which he took lessons from master Kasongo. Shocked by the violences in his native country, he presented « the slaughter of the innocent » as part of a collective exhibition, which had immediately been removed by the authorities. Threatened, he decided to flee and began a two years journey to France, where he arrived in 2020. He became a member of the agency of artists in exile in 2021.
