Augustine Kagimu

Abstract / Portraiture / Installation Art

Augustine Kagimu is an African visual artist based in Lusaka, Zambia. His interest in art was first sparked by his uncle who was sculpting the human figure for his university project. Empowered with all the possibilities art can offer, he embarked on his journey at the age of 6.
Kagimu went on to study art throughout his education up and till his University where he majored in graphic design but never stopped painting.
He has had the opportunity to live and grow up in multiple countries, mostly African. This experience enriched him with a mix of cultures and traditions that he celebrates in his work.
Kagimu is known for his modern abstract work that celebrates Pan-Africanism and is a spotlight on elements of African pride through colour, texture and symbolism, but he also questions the responsibilities of human presence with his disruptive installation work.
