Serigne Mansour “MadZoo”
Graffiti artist
Serigne Mansour Fall is an artist born on June 24, 1987, in Dakar, Senegal. He is a graffiti artist and multi-talented artist who goes by the pseudonym MAD ZOO TRK.
He has had a passion for art since the age of 7, when he began making his first sketches. The end of 2004 and beginning of 2005 marked the start of his enthusiasm for graffiti. With the help of old-school graffiti artist BIG KEY (Misérable Graff Crew), the artist trained and began to make his way in the graffiti scene in Senegal.
This opening to the international scene led to exciting collaborations with major organizations such as: THE UNITED NATIONS, THE GOOGLE ART INSTITUTE, THE 4H EDUCATION PROGRAM (U.S.A), VIRGINIA TECH (U.S.A), AEROSOUL (OAKLAND/CALIFORNIA), ARSTECH (KANSAS CITY), GENESIS SCHOOL (KANSAS CITY), INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF DAKAR, CHEIKH ANTA DIOP UNIVERSITY OF DAKAR, THE THEODORE MONOD NATIONAL MUSEUM, THE UNIVERSITY OF BAMBEY, GHIPHOP, AFRICULTURBAN, THE HOUSE OF URBAN CULTURES, among others.
He trained the very first generations of graffiti artists in Mauritania, Benin, and most recently in Mali in 2016.
Today, many walls in the Senegalese capital and certain locations in the interior of the country, and even internationally, bear his mark, engraved forever.
