Community Painting Peace RDC

An intermodal expressive-arts curriculum culminated in an early crisis intervention community mural process.

The creative process

Benjamin worked closely with youth artist Brice Mumbere Kamabu. Brice’s subsequent development as a professional artist and local change agent became a longitudinal example informing Artegenesis.

People & collaboration

Benjamin Swatez, Brice Mumbere Kamabu, youth and community participants.

A continuing conversation

This project belongs to a wider practice of community-authored expression. Its relationship to Artegenesis is explored as part of Benjamin’s developing research, without assuming identical effects across communities.
