Graffiti in Guinea, led by artist Chimere, is transforming urban spaces into platforms for culture, history, and social issues, gaining official and public support.
Graffiti is gaining widespread acceptance in West Africa, particularly in Guinea, where Senegalese artist Omar Diaw, known as “Chimere,” has transformed Conakry’s urban landscape with large-scale murals.
Once seen as vandalism, the art now serves as a respected medium for public awareness, cultural celebration, and political expression.
Diaw, inspired by Senegal’s pioneering graffiti artist Amadou Lamine Ngom, uses his work to highlight Guinean history, musicians, independence leaders, and social issues like migration and public health.
Supported by local authorities and residents, the movement reflects African realities and values, with growing efforts to include women in the scene.
