‘Middle Ground’: When patterns speak of belonging and identity
Artworks on display during the Middle Ground exhibition at Kofisi Art Gallery, Westlands, Nairobi, on October 29, 2025: Mishoni Salon and Rose Mary Munyoki III by Taabu Munyoki (left); Untitled IX (Fragile Boundaries) by David Thuku (top right); and Untitled (Breath and Recover) by Nadia Wanjiru (bottom right).
What Kofisi Art Gallery have done is breathe life into spaces that would normally be considered stiff because of their corporate nature. Their first show dubbed Force Field is perhaps the exhibition of the year.
Few exhibitions have come close in terms of the quality and quantity of work that was on display in an unfinished section of a burgeoning high-rise corporate-setting office apartment. Their second exhibition in the same space is smaller, quainter, and is composed of a collage of works that are fragments of the same mirror.
