Título de venta : In Pro Afro Woman, Xenson uses floral motifs and pattern to create an aesthetic disguise which obscures the identity of his female figure and reflects on the human tendency to hide behind facades. Decoration is used to adapt form and flatten space, raising questions about artificiality and layers in relation to both identity and canvas. Xenson's practice, which spans painting, performance, fashion design, installation, video and photography, is influenced by elements of African cultures and dance, as well as Hip Hop. Xenson graduated from Margaret Trowell School of Fine Art with a first-class honours degree. He has exhibited extensively and participated in numerous residencies and festivals worldwide, including Art Transposition, LKB/G Gallery, Hamburg, 2017 Kampala Contemporary, Circle Art Gallery, Nairobi, 2015 KLA Art 014, Kampala, 2014 The Lubare and the Boat, Deveron Arts, Scotland, 2014 Future of Africa Summit, Paris, 2014 and Africa Now: Fashioning Personhood, Minneapolis Institute of Art, USA, 2014.
