On view for a limited time: August 25 鈥� September 18.

Cedric Mizero was born and raised in a small village called Gishoma in the Western Province of Rwanda. Since he was a teenager he enjoyed experimenting with his clothes and try styles that would catch the eye of the community around him. In 2012 he moved to Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, where he started to interact with fashion designers and artists that supported him in his initial experimentation with conceptual art and fashion creation. A self-taught artist, Cedric enjoys observing and exchanging with other artists and artisans to learn from their techniques and hard work to stay inspired and motivated with his own development. He chooses to mix disciplines in his work, experimenting with paint, textures, fabrics and still objects, allowing himself to navigate freely through feelings and emotions to bring to his art a voice for love.
