It is with delight that I present new work created during my KYOTOGRAPHIE African Artists Residency last year!

During this residency, I immersed myself in Japanese textile craftsmanship, working with masters like Kondaya Genbei who made the kimono used in this particular artwork.

Historically, textiles have been a meeting point for many cultures, with the influence of trade, global events, and the intermingling of traditions woven into their fibres. In More Than Half, I bring together the two worlds of Japan and Kenya to speak about one’s place in a community and present a world where belonging is not granted by resemblance, but expanded by existence.

I cannot wait to share this new work (and some Camo!) with you!

Come and see ‘Camo’, Presented by , at Kondaya Genbei Chikuin-no-Ma opening 18th April.
