Edgar is a Tanzanian graphic artist, imagineer and illustrator with a background in architecture, living in the UK. He is a father of a curious 5-year-old who challenges him creatively and keeps him on his toes.
Edgar loves to tell stories with the art he creates and tries to invoke a response beyond the aesthetic appreciation to inspire curiosity. Most of Edgars recent work has been driven by the experiences of place making, place identity and cultural/rooted identity. creating work that visualises how he grounds himself as someone living outside their cultural and physical context, responding to how does he reconciles where he is from with where he is, as an artist, a broader creative, a father, a Christian, a husband, and a son.
Edgar enjoys the practice of bringing the imagination to life through creative storytelling.
