Serge Agnide Dade
For me, design is a creative process that is the basis of everything. In my work I bring my thoughts to life, I present my own vision of things.
Who am I ?
Self-taught Beninese artist, I started as a photographer in 2016 at Medusartstudio and was the 2018 winner of the Best photographic collaboration Award at the African festival FESTIFLASH. I have since moved on to film as photo director & cinematographer and since 2020 have embarked on the adventure of 2D and 3D motion design.
