PAOLO KIPAO
Paolo Kipao is originally from Bergamot, Italy and has been living in Seychelles for over 30 years.
He paints (mostly) non-figurative compositions which are extraordinarily powerful compressions of movement, colour and emotion. A number of compositions are among the largest ever exhibited in Seychelles. Kipao has been exhibiting in Seychelles for several years, and successfully so within the context of a market which continues to favour more traditional figurative painting.
The passion in Kipao’s work is tangible. What is surprising though is a certain elusiveness which invites deeper investigation. Certainly, the work is stunning.
