Marthe Ngandu aka Magstonesoulart is a self taught artist originated from the Democratic Republic of Congo. Married and mother of 4 children she has always loved drawing and art has always been part of her family.
Nevertheless she studied Finance and Marketing in Congo and later in South Africa. After several years trying to find her feet in a career path mostly dominated by customer care in different field she found herself at an existential crossroads and decided to go back to Art.
Quinessential to her identity is joy. Joy and happiness in the face of adverse circumstances is a theme permeating the spontaneity and freedom of her bold and saturated brushstrokes. It is a celebration of African identity and Africanism.
The exuberance and joy her work radiates is equally an act of defiance. Through intimate portraits where the eyes hold ever the focal point, she expresses the transcendent meaning of being beyond blackness beyond womanhood and far beyond the cloistered cubicles of societal bias. The fearlessness and vibrance of Ankara /wax( African Fabric ) and acrylic fusing into strong portraits that provoke the existential questions of our collective connectivity is a hallmark of the work of a truly intriguing artist.
