Géraldine Tobe – Kalunga
After a visit of the JRSLM group exhibition, where Géraldine Tobe was presented, Prime Minister Rudi Vervoort commissioned Hans De Wolf to present a project in response to the Brussels government’s 2022 mission to Kinshasa. The exhibition KALUNGA will present the first overview of Congolese artist Géraldine Tobe’s work, whose unique technique of painting with smoke enables her to construct exhilarating images that confront the public with snippets of her personal life story.
But the most miraculous of it all is the fact that it is light itself – under the form of little petrol cans – that creates deep dark shadows – unspeakable – by means of its eternal smoke that brings you elsewhere, everywhere
