Cassi Namoda, born 1988 Maputo, Mozambique, lives & works in Los Angeles, CA
As the daughter of a Mozambican mother and an American father, Cassi Namoda spent most of her childhood travelling around the world, being exposed to a variety of idea, cultures, and stories. She would return to Maputo, Mozambique, in her early twenties before permanently settling in Los Angeles. With dream-like elements and folkloric references, her painting calls forth an evocative and intimate recollection.
