The works of Congolese 🇨🇩 artist Christian Badibanga, known as “Ba,” feature neutral colors— browns, black, white, grey— and swirling lines that appear to be without beginning or end. He mixes coffee, acrylic, and buttons that he finds by chance, on white canvas. His anthropoid, cycloptic figures reflect both the dark realities of society while at the same time representing our ability to rebuild and reconstruct ourselves and continue to live life in dignity.

Gallery Article 15 is pleased to offer a selection of works by Ba. Available at the gallery and on our website and Artsy.net (links in bio).

Please note our special hours for this coming weekend as we travel to New York!

Gallery Article 15 is excited to be part of KUBA FESTIVAL - RUMBA: FROM KINSHASA TO THE BRONX on June 17. This multidisciplinary cultural festival will celebrate the music and art of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) 🇨🇩including a special musical performance by our good friend Nkumu Katalay. Gallery Article 15 will be on site with an exhibition of contemporary Congolese art and textiles— including Kuba!— all for sale.

Kuba cloth has long been close to our hearts 💕. These traditional textiles are handmade from raffia palm leaves. The textiles originated in the Kuba Kingdom in the 17th century and constitute a rich tradition. Kuba cloth is recognizable by geometric patterns and colors in neutrals, black and orange.

Not in New York? Pas de soucis/no worries. You can always find our art and textile products in the gallery and online (see link in bio).

Every stitch tells a story in these beautiful mixed-media works by the multi-disciplinary Congolese artist Rachel Malaïka (born 1986 in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo). Malaïka challenges historical narratives, particularly those surrounding colonial representations of African

These works reinterpret colonial-era photographs, reclaiming the identities of women previously rendered anonymous by historical documentation. The artist uses screen-printed archival photographs of Congolese women as a starting point, to which she hand applies weaving, embroidery, fabric, and symbolic motifs to construct richly textured compositions. Through these reconstructions, Malaïka awakens the enduring strength, resilience and power of women in Congolese society.

The works of Congolese 🇨🇩artist Pelindaa Mulonda highlight the strength, determination and beauty of Congolese women. At the same time, the artist believes that women do not have to sacrifice their traditions and femininity to combat gender discrimination and inequality. Her technique includes heavy brushstrokes along with residue of copper and also fabric collage, creating works that are both vibrant and beautiful as well as deeply Congolese.
