Cristiano Mangovo (1982- ) is an Angolan artist. Employing the use of mediums including painting, installation, performance, and more, his work is surreal and expressionistic. Swirling limbs and clothing are reconfigured into new forms. Many of his pieces consider the relationship between humans, plants, and animals. Driven by social and political realities, he critiques corrupt systems.  A recurring motif in his work is double mouths, one restricted by fear and one speaking freely.  Mangovo graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Kinshasa.
