About the artist

Briata Raimondo

Italy

Briata Raimondo paints to reveal an inner narrative shaped by a complex personal history. Growing up in post-colonial Somalia, he witnessed the country’s gradual collapse, from the 1969 military coup to the full-blown war in 1991, experiencing its profound impact on society, family, and psyche. His paintings transform disorder into poetry, creating visual amalgams where new shapes emerge, spatial tension builds, and layered textures take form. Through his work, he establishes a metaphysical bridge between his inner world and the viewer.
