Ronex is a sculptor/painter/printmaker who was born in Uganda in 1977 and graduated with a degree in fine arts in 2001. His style is a colourful blending of acrylics, basco paints, oils, prints and inks on diverse supports as sisal, canvas, bark cloth, paper, cardboard and woods. Many of his paintings depict women.
"A good thing is - Ugandan men hate skinny women and those who wear too much makeup. So in my works I try to show and preserve the role of our women, their responsibilities and what I regard as African beauty".
Ronex has exhibited in the Netherlands, France, Germany, Australia and the East Africa Art Biennales. He has been Artist of the Month at the Alliance Francaise and been profiled in Australian Art Review.
