Ronex Ahimbisibwe

Ronex Ahimbisibwe was born in Rucence, Uganda, in 1977 and currently works and lives in Kampala. After graduating from Margaret Trowell School of Industrial and Fine Arts in 2001, Ronex has had many solo exhibitions in Uganda, the USA, Germany, the Netherlands, and many more.

His visual journey mainly entails studio research in a quest to discover his own capabilities, strength and doubts by tapping into the subconscious. In his view, creativity has no boundaries except those delimited by time and matter; one’s physical capacity for work in a quantifiable period of time-space. His desire has always been to create works that curiously blend in the fashion of the legendary double-edged sword: sophistication meeting naivety, chaos meeting order, beauty meeting ugliness, aesthetics meeting free expression, and so on. Ronex’s artworks embody his joy, frustration, inspiration, and his perception into tangible objects.

The artworks include paintings, sculptures, woodcut prints, digital art and photography, furniture, and mixed-media installations.
