Hi !

Thank you for being here.

My name is Rania Inarukundo.

I am a multi-hyphenate artist from Burundi, currently based in Tiohtià:ke : (commonly known as Montréal).

Sometimes i just wanna be the art,

Other times i wanna look like art

Then I would get these urges to write art

To create art

To observe art

To experience art

To feel art

To enjoy an art.

Rania Inarukundo.

My work is a kind look at the life of a person navigating life in both its beautiful and raw ways .

It comments on what it means to be a first generation immigrant, reflects on care in community, identity and belonging . I look for hope in humanity and in contrasts of growing up in a war zone both on the inside and on the outside.

My texts , pleas and poetry are inspired by the young child in all of us who longs to be seen& heard.
