Amadou Moctar Ly, known as "Masta," is a contemporary Senegalese painter known for his imaginative interpretations of the world through his artwork. Born in 1974 in Senegal, Moctar Ly graduated from the Beaux-Arts in Dakar, where he honed his skills and developed his unique artistic style.
Inspired by his hometown of Saint-Louis du Senegal, with its rich history of colonial architecture and mythological beliefs, Moctar Ly's paintings transport viewers to an imaginary world. Through the use of monochrome colors, he evokes a sense of timelessness, often placing his narratives within specific historical eras and centuries.
The mystical dimension of Moctar Ly's creative universe is evident in his series of paintings with titles such as "Talisman," "Sacred Wood," "Magic Square," and "Mystic city of Kumba Bang." These artworks delve into themes of spirituality, tradition, and the unseen forces that shape human existence.
One of Moctar Ly's notable series features monochromatic depictions overlaid on a free-drawing background, inspired by old postcards of his hometown. These paintings not only serve as a visual homage to the historic streets of Saint-Louis du Senegal but also offer a glimpse into the city's ancestral past, educating viewers about its cultural heritage.
Beyond his Senegalese roots, Moctar Ly's artistic explorations extend to other cities and cultures. His series depicting the historic streets of Paris or the city of Le Mans reveals a sense of nostalgia and admiration for the timeless beauty of these locales.
Currently residing and working in France, Moctar Ly continues to captivate audiences with his evocative artwork, inviting viewers to journey with him through the realms of imagination and history.
