One day
in 1993, after
setting up the
studio with lights and a backdrop for a commercial portrait session that went very
quickly, David found himself alone
in the
studio with his adorable new puppy.
Though there was little
in place supporting that decision, he
quickly aligned himself with other artists to establish M'Pongo, a group
studio where a diverse
set of young artists shared ideas and exhibited together to generate their own vibrant scene, which tapped into the high - energy creativity of contemporary Kinshasa.
