Syuko Nanyinza

I am a BA (Hons) Animation student. My name is Syuko Nanyinza and I'm from Lusaka, Zambia. My practice looks to explore the ever-developing field of modern popular culture and animating for social change. I mainly create two-dimensional art, creating many original characters as well sometimes recreating well known characters in my own style. I am a storyboard artist and writer; with a book titled The Time of Our Lives which is available on Amazon. I have a three-year experience in teaching fifteen plus children how to do basic drawings and currently work in the Graphics Department for a family business, MishMash, where I create logos, caricatures and backdrops. Many of my works are heavily inspired by cartoon television shows I watched growing up, and I hope after graduating, I will have the opportunity to create and produce memorable and expressive content similar to what I grew up with.
