| About the Artist | |
My work is not an attempt at healing, the things I have seen and done cannot be cured, or erased that easily. I am merely a billboard for a world brainwashed by greed. |

| Education and biography | |
| I have drawn since I was a child, but have learned painting during the two years in London. My first works was shown in stolen spaces, but my first gallery show was at Meskalito gallery in East London in 2007, where I showed my ‘Idols of the Cave’ painting. I am excited to work in new forms and have worked with the curator Alfred camp on ‘Ein Grosser Schwartzer’. This has been a big challenge as I understand that art is more than objects, but how the objects work with each other to make more than is physically there. My last project ‘Cockaigne Culture’ at the Royal Academy in London which closed in February 2008 has resolved many material questions, and I have also felt confident to argue for my own understanding of concepts, and win through. | |
| Future shows | |
| I am excited to be working on new sculptures with cursed objects and I will hope to be showing them this year in London. If you have object that you think to be cursed or give you back luck then you can send me images at 'kuleingozi@gmail.com'. I do not look at my email many times in winter, so please wait for reply patiently. | |
