Georges Senga
Photographer & Visual Artist
Investigating memory, identity, and heritage
Georges Senga (b. 1983, Lubumbashi, DRC) is a photographer and visual artist based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. His work develops around history and the narratives revealed by memory, identity, and heritage.
His projects explore memory, looking for the resonances that people, their facts and their objects leave behind, and the resilience of memory in his country, DR Congo. Through photography, installation, and archival research, Senga investigates how personal and collective histories shape our understanding of the present.
