Miekutima Enoch
Democratic Republic of the Congo
His signature style is defined by intricate knitted threads woven across faces and bodies
Miekutima Enoch, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Kinshasa, creates works at the intersection of personal mythology and collective memory, using acrylic and oil. His signature style is defined by intricate knitted threads woven across faces and bodies—a motif symbolizing unity and cultural continuity that has become his artistic hallmark.

Inspired by the concept of Nkekełe (a creeping vine plant), he constructs ethnobotanical connections, paying homage to ancestral crafts. Through interwoven threads in his paintings, the artist builds phantasmagorical worlds that explore identity and challenge stereotypes.

His participation in international projects has allowed him to reinterpret his practice, engage in dialogue with the global art community, and present African culture within a broader contemporary context.
