Drawings

Ilunga's artworks offer a glimpse into her exploration of the self and the broader human experience. Using a variety of mediums, she produces intricately detailed and stylized self-portraits that blur the boundaries between reality and myth. By doing so, Ilunga encourages viewers to contemplate their own identity and relationship with the world.

Mental health and illness are crucial components of Ilunga's artwork, especially within African communities where stigma and misunderstanding prevail. Drawing on ancient myths and symbols, she demonstrates that these experiences are universal and aims to humanize and destigmatize those who suffer.

Ilunga's work draws inspiration from traditional techniques and great masters, resulting in a one-of-a-kind fusion of styles that speaks to both the past and present. Her drawings are a never-ending dialogue with history, culture, and the self, exposing the intricacy and abundance of the human condition.
