A self-taught artist, Kiluanji Kia Henda employs a strong sense of humour in his work, which often hones in on themes of identity, politics, and perceptions of post-colonialism and modernism in Africa. Practicing in the fields of photography, video, and performance, Kiluanji Kia Henda has tied his multidisciplinary approach to a sharp sense of criticality. In complicity with historical legacy, Kia Henda realizes the process of appropriation and manipulation of public spaces, and the different representations that form part of collective memory.
