About The Artist

Serigne says one of the most important events in his life was finally getting a motorized wheelchair which he moves using his head. "I use it to go outside and I'm very good at it. I'm almost really really good." He also remembers being excited when he moved to a house in Manhattan with an elevator so he could easily go inside and outside.

Serigne loves to laugh. He also likes to create artwork when he is happy, sad or mad and he loves the colors red, green, blue, purple and magenta. "I like to paint using my mouth stick so that I can do it all by myself."
