Elie HATUNGIMANA is a visual multi-disciplinary artist born in 1998, raised and works in Rwanda. He studied and graduated in graphic arts at Nyundo School of Arts. In early 2020, he started doing art career dedicated to learning and very importantly becoming a better version of myself as a visual artist working with visual art. His painting depicts contemporary socialism and narrative art stories engaged with them related to daily community life that inspire, empower and connect with the viewers. His paintings focus on the transformation of ordinary and abstract spaces into an impressionable world that can be transformed into something meaningful. Art for him is an extension of self. A picture is more than just art and to him, fine art is not simply making beautiful things. Also, its simple but powerful tool can be applied to all walks of life or any situation Hat_Elie in his art journey liked to be inspired by realms of nature and social communities lives and the captivating world of creative fashion. Through my art journey, I strive to explore the harmonious connection between our social existence the beauty of nature, and the ever-evolving world of fashion. Social community stories and nature full of an abundance of color textures and landscapes serve as the backdrop of his art. People’s lives, daily stories, interactions, and routines fascinate me endlessly. He is captivated by emotions to convey the relationship they forge and the narratives that unfold with the story. Through my artworks I strive to capture these moments of community life connection, portraying them as snapshots of daily life that resonate with viewers on a deeply personal level.
