Assoukrou Aké — À propos — Slash Paris

Assoukrou Aké is a multidisciplinary artist, who freely explores different plastic forms ranging from installation to sculpture, through engraving and textile works, to elaborate what he calls ‘a healing narrative’. His work bears the traces of Africa’s social, medical and political history as well as his personal history of cultural dualities, silences and revealed words. The artist succeeds in mixing drama, humour and poetry in sensitive works that revolve around the practice of counter-gesture and the search for the reverse.
