Who is Yapaud?

YAPO Yapo Patrick (Yapaud) was born in Grand-Akoudzin. He lives and works in Bingerville.
Plastic artist-installer, teacher of Color and Techniques associated with textiles at the Technical Center of Applied Arts (CTAA), Bingerville-Ivory Coast.
Yapaud, an eclectic artist, uses different techniques which he mixes in an interesting way.
His totems of different colors created with materials that are not part of the tradition, but which respect and exalt its language, are very impressive. The original technique used for collage, and often in his works, comes from the training of the artist, who was raised in his father's laboratory who made mats, made baskets, chairs, carved pestles, mortars ... 
His famous creation called Expression papier is made from strips or strips of paper that he braids and weaves, in order to present a mosaic of colors and shapes, as well as a play of pixels that translates the dynamics of life into all its facets.
Varying his creations in the search for supports and mediums, Yapaud participates in numerous exhibitions and consequently obtains distinctions.
