Eugénia Mussa
Moçambique
Eugénia Mussa (Maputo, Mozambique, 1978) lives and works in Lisbon. She studied drawing and painting at Ar.Co, Lisbon (2009) and has a Foundation Course in Fine Arts from City and Islington College, London (2002). Her diasporic journey influences her work, but in her paintings she doesn't directly confront the theme of African identity, but fuses it with memories, images and feelings collected along her journey.
