Visit the INZU - Atelier Munana Gatera
Born in Burundi, raised between Rwanda, Congo and Belgium, working between Lisbon and Brussels, Munana Gatera is a self-taught artist who likes to play with different crafts and techniques. A serial creator at heart, he does not like to label himself a designer or a painter but rather considers himself a creator of emotions who takes on any creative endeavor his soul calls for. He has collaborated with name brands and independent designers before creating his own namesake brand in 2014. In 2021, Munana and his team inaugurated the INZU (home in Kinyarwanda) to operate as atelier, showroom, and exhibition space. The space usually available upon reservation, will open doors for 3 days during BDC. About "Art on RUGS"Returning after a long time spent pondering and experimenting with his craft in the confines of his atelier, Munana Gatera comes back to the design world with a high-end rug collection. Remaining true to himself in this capsule collection, he brings together his many disciplines: painting, fashion, graphic art, and design.Partly re-creation, partly exclusive design this collection [re]presents the essence of the Gatera DNA. Each rug is limited to seven numbered sealed copies, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The rugs are handmade in Portugal following long-lived traditional techniques.
