Joy Yamusangie

Resumen

Joy Yamusangie is a visual artist living and working in London. Yamusangie’s work exists both within dream and reality, creating fictional characters and worlds that provide insight into the artist's real life. They experiment with a range of processes such as drawing, film, painting and collaging to produce mixed media pieces. Their work often discusses trans masculinity, intimacy and Blackness from a personal perspective.

 

Inspiration is drawn from personal conversations, treasured memories and relationships. Each individual piece documents and retells moments, creating a physical permanence to past experiences from the artist’s life.

 

Yamusangie’s previous work includes a public art installation commissioned by Tate (2018), being selected for the RA Summer show (2021) and a solo show at Tiwani Contemporary in (2023). Their work has appeared in editorials for The Fall Magazine and British Vogue and in 2021 they were commissioned by Penguin to create the cover for the C.L.R James’ novel, Minty Alley.
