A Collective Construction Site

Hervé Youmbi is a visual artist based in Douala. He is a member of Cercle Kapsiki, a collective created in 1998 by five artists (Blaise Bang, Salifou Lindou, Jules Wokam, Hervé Yamguen, Hervé Youmbi) with the specific aim of producing urban interventions and encouraging debate on the role of art in urban space. The collective deals with artistic practices that interact with the local population and the urban environment. Hervé Youmbi has also participated in the project Scénographies Urbaines in Douala. He trained at the Ecole Superiore des Arts Decoratifs in Strasbourg. He is currently involved in the project Jevais, training young people in visual arts in the neighbourhoods of Douala.
