ARTIST STATEMENT
Following a BAFA in 2023 at Michaelis School of Fine Art, I return to the roots of art in portraits and landscapes. This body of work comprises landscapes and portraits that vary stylistically, playing on the archaic and modern, with varying production media. Moreover, the imagery used is drawn from personal experiences and interests. Although each work may stand as one individually, they all together represent a progression on the other.
ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
Ronald Abdou, often known as Ronald Ngum or Abdou Kiloh, is a young emerging multimedia artist from
Cameroon and completed his BAFA in Michaelis School of Fine Art, South Africa in 2023. As a multimedia
artist, his practice encompasses; paintings, photography, video art, film, sculpture and sculptural installations. Predominantly, he explores the different forms of knowledge that define who people are and how they interact with the world. These reflections extend from his personal life experience to communal experiences and cultural tensions that exist within human spaces.
