He began painting in 2000 then enrolled at Inafac (National Institute for artistic and cultural training) in Ouagadougou for three years. A designer with an expressive and sharp style, Harouna experiments with abstraction while giving herself freedom, gesture and movement. His works are inspired by the society around him. The street, the human, the daily life offer him an infinite panel of subjects. "Building, deconstructing, reconstructing are actions that I often use in my work with an illogical search for line and form".
