In the 90's, he opens himself to art thanks to the urban poetry of rap. To escape the violence in his country, he went into exile in 2001 in South Africa for nearly ten years. Today, he shares his life between these two countries. In 2015, he discovered photography through the works of Robert Doisneau, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank. "I fell absolutely in love with this medium that allowed me to tell stories and remain poetic, to develop my imagination while inscribing it in reality. Street photography became my credo and I spent most of my time living this poetic passion as close as possible to people and their lives." "The desire to tell stories, to share ordinary or unusual moments, to show the rest of the world where I come from is the basis of my work and my creativity." His dream: that young Africans share his passion and take an interest in photography to tell the story of their lives, their country, Africa. Today, his pictures have been exhibited all over the world: South Africa, Congo, Ghana, France, Germany, United States...
