Atugonza, Richard

Born 1994 in Fort Portal, Uganda.
Lives and works in Kampala, Uganda

Richard Atugonza, Grace, 2021, Charcoal dust, saw dust, resin cast sculpture, 50 x 57 x 15 cm. Courtesy of Afriart Gallery. 

Richard Atugonza graduated from Margaret Trowell School of Industrial and Fine Art, Makerere University Kampala in 2019. As a sculptor, his current body of works encompasses a selection of portraits depicting people in his life whom he sculpts in ubiquitous materials such as saw dust and charcoal found in his immediate environment. He captures proportion, body movement, and posture using the reverse technique. He sees his practice as an extension of a recycling line. He initially began using plastic litter found on the university premises. This further extended to sourcing these materials from his neighbours living on the same compound and purchasing it from the recycling depot. Atugonza has exhibited his work at a number of art fairs and exhibitions (Im)perfections and Surfaces– both at Afriart Gallery, Kampala in 2019.
