Sambu Dinzenza, Yves (*1980), Kinshasa, D.R. Congo
"Kitendi en coukeur", Vanitas project, 2010
aluminium print,
Yves Sambu?s work is based on the evolution of man and the social integration of men and women in the city. He addresses cohabitation issues which demand respect for one another despite differences in point of view, conviction, and way of being.
He is also inspired by the "La Sape" movement in Congo: colourfully and luxuriously dressed men that roam the streets of Kinshasa. Sapeurism can be traced all the way back to the colonial period in Brazzaville and Kinshasa when house slaves were given clothing instead of money as compensation for their work.
