About

Gerard Pefung is a Cameroonian-Born artist based in the United States. His work investigates the intersection of cultural heritage, environmental consciousness, and urban life.

Working across painting and large-scale murals, he creates pieces that function as both personal narratives and collective memory-connecting past present and future through visual storytelling.
