Peteros Ndunde

Born in 1996, Peteros Ndunde is an artist based in Nairobi, Kenya. He is currently studying for a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Kenyatta University, Nairobi, Kenya.

He became interested in drawing at a very young age and developed his talent over time. He draws inspiration from his personal experiences daily to conceive his works. He is interested in the most fundamental human psychological interactions and their societal impacts.

Peteros uses different media depending on the method he wants to use to transmit the desired message. The drawing remains nevertheless its main medium for the subtlety of the messages delivered over time. His work also seems to defy realistic and conventional art forms. As Analytical Cubism breaks down the natural forms of the subject in geometric forms and reformulates its representation, Peteros combines a wide range of multiple perspectives of the human body in to an image to stage human behaviour in a minimalist way, false reflections of more complex and more complex emotional systems.

"My work explores the experiences of daily life and the enormous ripple effects that flow from these seemingly "life actions". Indeed, most daily interactions have enormous psychological and social consequences for an individual and, indeed, for society in general. As such, my minimalist approach in the work becomes a metaphor for the complexities of my subjects, that preserve a facade of simplicity." Peteros Ndunde
