Biografia
Mpeke Alphonse is an African born Cameroonian; the second child of a family of five. He immigrated to England in 1997 from Belgium (Liège) and France (Paris) where he spent a major part of his life.
He lives in a Suburb of East London.In order to express himself and explore his own fantasies and freedom, he used brushes, knifes, spatulas, crayons, canvas, and acrylics and oils colours. This natural talent and love for painting was exercised since the age of 5.
After the divorce of his parents when he was 9, he plunged in an intensive struggling moment of his life. During those difficult years Mpeke drew, painted and wrote in order to escape the difficult reality of his life. At 17, he discovered through drawing, painting and writing poetry a way of escaping, surviving and recovering from his inner side childhood wounds. Painting is first of all an expression of liberation for him. Also a powerful therapy against his personal moments of frustration and doubts.
His imagery goes beyond the overtly social and contemporary environment where he has always been living. He conveys a remarkable dynamic of movement, atmosphere and energy within each of his images. Profound and intensely emotional, he approaches subjects and lifts the sail of certain mystified aspects of human condition. His abstracts works are pure outcomes of his fantasies. There is no limitations or boundaries in Mpeke’s imaginary or creation. A painter in his point of view should be free to express existing or perceived forms and colours in his own way. As far as Mpeke’s work is concerned, the originality of his paintings reveals a level of maturity and freedom to explore in order to stimulate our interrogations on the real sense of oneself.
He spends a couple of times at the Royal Fine Art Academy of Liège in Belgium (1993). The same year he won a collective first price of photography and painting organised by the Belgian HCR, (High Commission for Refugees) untitled ‘loin de ma maison (far from my home).
Nevertheless, this natural talented fine-artist has just begun what will be one of the most remarkable work of an imaginative mind.

Alphonse Mpeke Paints A Good Impression/
By Ian Simon
“Within the black community we need to show
We can do more than just rap that we can
express ourselves through other art forms” so says
the voice of the talented artist and poet who has
recently showcased his latest series of remarkable
and controversial paintings ”Sensual Abstracts”
at the Red Gate Gallery in Brixton. His paintings
is” an infusion of African expressionism, abstract,
and contemporary styles”. His style he enthuses is
“Sensual......that’s my conception and my finger
print and I am going to use it again according to the
inspiration of the moment”
Alphonse is a passionate, expressive, yet sensitive
man who feels that as black people we need to
smash the stereotypical walls which surround us. His
paintings are provocative and imaginative. He has
a story to tell. It’s one of self exploration, and, of love
for the canvas. The impression you get is of a man
on a mission yet in Africa his work would be scorned
upon maybe even vilified, due to the themes within
some of his paintings such as sensual expressions.
It was in Cameroon though, where the journey began.
It was here where Alphonse grew up and nurtured
the hopes and dreams and indeed expectations of
a young artist. It was in these arid lands that painting
offered a therapeutic remedy against the personal
ghosts and frustrations of the youngster. “Expressing
Me remain vital as I never said much as a child
growing up in the confusing context that often exists
in Africa”
Mpeke Ntonga Alphonse is the second child of a
family of five. After the divorce of his parents when
he was 9, he plunged in an intensive struggling
moment of his life. During those difficult years
Mpeke drew, painted and wrote in order to escape
the difficult reality of his life. At 17, he discovered
through drawing, painting and writing poetry a way
of escaping, surviving and recovering from his inner
side childhood wounds. He immigrated to England
in 1997 from Belgium via France where he spent a
major part of his life.
He attended the Royal Fine Art Academy in Belgium,
where he won first prize for one of his paintings
entitled “Far from Home” Painting is first of all an
expression of liberation for him. It is also a “powerful
therapy against his personal moments of frustration
and doubts
He has also been awarded a Community Award
in 2004 by the by the Mayor of Newham, Sir Robin
Wales, for his Charity and Community work within
the Borough. This was for his involvement in setting
up a Youth Centre Project in Canning Town, East
London, helping 7 to 16 year olds to participate in
various activities to keep them off the streets.
In addition to his busy schedule Alphonse attends
UEL Docklands campus, and is studying for an MA in
Education and Development. He hopes one day to
Lecture on this subject.
A slim, studious looking man, Alphonse is charming,
and at ease when talking to me about his craft
and life. He strikes me as a reflective, intelligent, yet
immensely passionate and expressive man.
He wants his art to be an inspiration to other black
people forcing them to look within themselves and
be more expressive in their hopes and ambitions. He
bemoans the fact that many seem happy to plod
along not willing to challenge themselves creatively
or mentally. “The key word for us is freedom. We’re
looking for freedom in the wrong places. Where we
should be looking for it, we’re not”
You get the feeling that this multi talented and
determined artist will one day achieve one of his
many goals of empowering black people to be
more creative and competitive in their life choices,
through his thought provoking paintings and poetry
within the community. Alphonse knows it will be
difficult. Just like Marley said, you must first break the
Chains of mental slavery.

Que DIEU tout puissant puisse guidé tes pas vers le chemin dela réussite .

Alphonse, je ne peux que te féliciter et encourager dans ton travail d’artiste-peintre et prie les cieux pour que tu puisses avoir encore plus d'inspiration .je souhaite que tes oeuvres puissent avoir un succes sans pareil et que tes marques et signatures soient mondialement reconnus. Tu explores un chemin pas très connu du milieu African et loin d'interesser la communauté noire en générale .Sache que tu es un des pionniers sur ce terrain et tu peux compter sur des amoureux des oeuvres d'art comme moi pour te donner cette motivation que dont tu as besoin .Je te souhaite bien des choses et au plaisir . René BETEK.
estoy muy contento de tu obra; esas pinturas representan una expresion unica de la belleza y la claridad profunda de la sinceridad que sale de tu corazon; sigue asi hasta cumplir todo loque tienes que enseñar al mundo entero.
Bonjour AlphonseTes oeuvres sont magnifiques. Les couleurs éclatantes de tes oeuvres nous rappelle qu'il y a de l'espoir dans ce monde. Regarder tes oeuvres est un vrai délice de l'oeil. Sans être spécialiste de l'art, je crois qu'il est important de continuer de nous faire rêver et surtout que l'hiver canadien s'annonce rude.Marie Noël
Hi Alphonse ,I can only agree with all the very positive messages posted on to your guestbook, and add mine to the list... Your paintings are full of life and colors, a joy to look at ! I particularly like "Promises".. ;-) Bises Peggy
I really enjoyed the visit to the Red Gate gallery and observing your work more closely.

Your exhibition was an interesting piece of art, full of different shapes, bright colours, mature quality of style and lot lot of imagination! I hope to come in your next exhibition soon.
Oeuvre puisant dans les racines africaines toute sa sensibilité, son énergie et son dynamisme confiant et évolutif... Bonne continuation. Martine
I thought that your paintings/imagery have evolved into a spontaneous and organic moment which I know will continue to grow in strength. They are very much inspiring and innovative. Thank you for sharing that with me.
