Iba Ndiaye regards drawing and painting as thoroughly modern artistic tools. This attachment to his "craft" means that he often disagrees with those (artists and art critics) who consider it an anachronistic form of expression. A painter of African origin, Iba Ndiaye prefers to distance himself from the fashionable trends he deems responsible for the confusion currently dominating the art world.
