Thrilled to announce my first solo exhibition in Nairobi, 'Lost in a Daydream' ☁️☀️🎨 that will be held at Alliance Française. Join me for the opening on 5th February at 6 PM as I share a body of work that explores identity, intimacy, and escapism.

Creativity is a super power and that’s the reason capitalism tries to intimidate it. A creative person is not submissive, especially in their pursuits. A lack of a creative personality/spirit makes you so much more docile.

Became a visual artist so that I wouldn't have to talk so much, now all I do at exhibitions is talk.
