This exhibition is all about freedom in all its artistic forms

Long before the concept of freedom became such a hot topic within the media, six local artists (plus two co-curators) got together and agreed on the theme of their current exhibition at the Nairobi National Museum.

Freedom couldn’t be a better name for a show (curated by Camille Wekesa and Dr Gonda Geets) in which not only paintings and sculptures are on display in the vast Ecology Gallery, but also metallic plates and gold, silver, and copper-leaf coated calabashes (hung from rafters criss-crossing the gallery’s high vaulted ceiling).
