Kong Le Foudeur - Painter
Galerie HVL exhibits Kong Le Foudeur
Anthony Malamba, aka Kong le Foudeur, is a Belgian graphic designer and pop artist who bridges the gap between the world of cartoons and the world of fashion. He draws his inspiration from comics, cartoons and streetwear culture through classic and trendy brands: two worlds that he brings together in colour. His art is a vast mix of bright new ideas that he brings to life both digitally and in paint.
A former graffiti artist, Kong now favours large-format canvas to paint close-ups of characters in action, whose accessories and outfits will not escape the attentive eye of fashion lovers. Indeed, the multiple references, both discreet and flashy, reflect the real interest in fashion in general (sneakers, street fashion, etc.).
Finally, his illustrations highlight Belgium's rich cultural heritage: a culture to which Kong le Foudeur is very attached, since the world of comics plays a major role in his work.
