Colloquially known under the creative alias FUEGO, this multidisciplinary artist based in Cape Town, South Africa was born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, he channels his distinct perspective to narrate the contemporary African story—one shaped by his heritage, the possibilities the present, and the future he envisions.

A true polymath, Fuego moves fluently across disciplines, yet he is most widely recognised for his eccentric, bold, and distinctive aesthetic as a stylist. His craft is deeply rooted in “AFROFUTURISM,” an ideology that draws strength from the past, amplifies the voices of today, and boldly projects them into tomorrow. Whether conceptualising or constructing his vision, every project he touches carries a sense of motion that is forward-thinking, boundary-blurring, and distinctly African.

With a sharp eye, a wealth of knowledge, and nearly a decade of industry experience, he continually stretches the limits of creative expression and shows us what is possible when dedication and a spark of radical imagination are present.

Fuego has, is, and will continually make meaningful contributions to the growing African Renaissance, a future where we stand at the pinnacle of the creative world.
