môssieur njo

Môssieur Njo is the conceptual art practice of Mose Njo.
After a pause, the practice is resuming around questions of perception, imagination, creation, and neurodivergence, following my public reflection on aphantasia.

I am returning to art in search of what cannot be prompted by AI.

Funnily enough, every word on this website was written by AI. The art was not, and could not be.
