In 2017, the artist Seumboy VRAINOM :€ submitted a very unique video résumé as part of his application to the SPEAP program at Sciences Po Paris, a renowned course known for its approach combining art, culture, and politics.

This video résumé is not merely a demonstration of professional skills; it is an artwork in itself that delves deeply into questions of cultural identity and modern artistic expression. Seumboy uses the video to navigate his multiple identities and to illustrate the dilemmas he faces as an individual caught between two worlds: the Africa of his roots and the France of his everyday life. A universal theme in today’s context of globalization and multiculturalism.
