Willow Evann
A protean artist born in 1985, Willow Evann expressed very early the need to express himself through the body.
Coming from a housing estate in Bondy, and originally from the Ivory Coast, Willow has been wondering for a long time about his origins, about the relations between France and Africa, about the image and the social status of black people evolving in Western societies. These reflections are a common thread in his work as a dancer, photographer, and now as a visual artist. His latest works, in carved raw wood, depict this internal journey and address intimate questions, but with a universal resonance.
In 2019, Willow Evann joins the Kourtrajmé school in which he experiments and develops his plastic language.
