LA Arts Presents Works by Contemporary Angolan Artist Serafim Yssolo

LA Arts is announcing its first gallery exhibition of 2024 entitled "Life on Scraps" and featuring Angolan visual artist, Serafim Yssolo.

A rising talent in the world of Angolan contemporary art, this will be Yssolo’s first solo exhibit in the United States.

Yssolo, a self-taught artist born in Moxico, a province of Angola in Africa, has developed a unique artistic identity deeply rooted in his early years as a graffiti artist. His works have been shown in solo and collective exhibitions in Africa and Portugal and have delighted viewers, gaining attention for their distinctive style and mixed media techniques, including oil and acrylic on layered canvas and the use of recycled materials.

Harnessing multiple artistic expressions, Yssolo creates vibrant, engaging pieces that exude energy and joy. His evocative work and accompanying prose (presented in both English and Portuguese), captivates viewers and invites them to enjoy a rich art experience.
