About
Tchaggo is a multidisciplinary artist whose artistic practice is grounded in the careful observation of everyday life and the transformation of these experiences into works of art. Specializing in illustrations and canvas paintings, he strikingly expresses his creativity through the representation of hands, which have become a distinctive signature in his work. The characters inhabiting his works are notable for their disproportionately large hands, used as the primary means of expression and visual communication. As a Black artist, Tchaggo demonstrates a deep commitment to the representation of racial diversity, sensitively exploring various shades of Black skin. His art not only reflects his personal and cultural experiences but also seeks to engage a wide audience, encouraging reflection on issues of identity and otherness.
