Moridja Kitenge Banza (1980- ) is a Congolese artist working across painting, photography, film, drawing, collage, installation, and performance. He blurs the lines between fiction and reality exploring history and memory. He reappropriates codes of religious, cultural, political, social, and economic representations. Banza's diverse practice brings forth a Congolese perspective  that speaks the global influence.  Banza received degrees from the Académie des Beaux-Arts de Kinshasa, the École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Nantes Métropole, and the Faculty of Human and Social Sciences at the Université de La Rochelle.
