Artwork location: France

Born in Rwanda on January 12, 1988, Christelle Yambayisa arrived in France in 1996, after fleeing the genocide. It was in 2015, while she was preparing a thesis in strategy and governance, that she was asked to become a model.

His passion for photography began very early and allowed him, in a way, to put words and feelings to his difficult past. This is how, over the years, she used photography as a means of externalizing her traumas.

Her story and certain lived experiences have led her to speak out publicly on certain societal and political subjects, notably the cult of age in modeling, the legal status of models or hatred and racism online. These events also led her to confront the genocide.

Since a very young age, she has documented her life, as a means of creating her own memories. In fact, all the photos from his early childhood were destroyed during the war. His exhibition La Mode, Les Mondes is the first step that the artist takes towards a work of personal memory of the Rwandan genocide. She wants to encourage people who have experienced the same thing as her, to express themselves on the subject in a non-politicized framework and without taking a position.

His photographs are composed of landscapes, portraits, moments of work and life captured with SLRs and hybrids between 2013 and 2022, and equally with film and hybrid shooting until today.

The chosen works come from her first exhibition where Christelle Yambayisa invites the visitor to understand how fashion where she works as a model allowed her to discover the World, Nature and her own nature.

Rwanda  • 1988

Born in Rwanda on 12 January 1988, Christelle Yambayisa arrived in France in 1996 after fleeing the genocide. It was in 2015, while preparing a thesis in strategy and governance, that she was offered the chance to become a model.
Her passion for photography began at a very early age, and in a way enabled her to put words and feelings to her difficult past. Over the years, she has used photography as a means of expressing her traumas.
Her story and certain experiences have led her to speak out publicly on a number of social and political issues, including the cult of age in modelling, the legal status of models and online hate and racism. These events have also led her to come face to face with genocide.
Ever since she was very young, she has been documenting her life, as a way of creating her own memories. All her early childhood photos were destroyed during the war. Her exhibition La Mode, Les Mondes is the first step the artist has taken towards a personal remembrance of the Rwandan genocide. She wants to encourage people who have lived through the same thing as her to express themselves on the subject in a non-political and non-partisan way.
Her photographs are composed of landscapes, portraits, moments of work and life captured with SLRs and hybrids between 2013 and 2020, and in equal measure with film and hybrid photography up to the present day.
