As an artist deeply rooted in my Ugandan heritage, I am driven by a passion for exploring and revitalizing our cultural practices to address contemporary challenges and ensure their preservation for future generations. My work is profoundly influenced by the restitution movement, emphasizing the importance of reclaiming and celebrating our cultural narratives and material heritage. Through diverse mediums, including woodblock prints, painting, textiles, fashion, and curation, I delve into the rich tapestry of Ugandan traditions. My artistic practice is a dialogue between the past, present, and future, seeking to uncover the interconnectedness of our histories and the continuous evolution of our cultural identity. I believe in the power of art to serve as a bridge across time, bringing ancestral wisdom into contemporary contexts and fostering a deeper understanding of our collective journey. By documenting and reliving our cultural practices, I aim to create works that resonate with both personal and universal themes, inspiring reflection and dialogue. My exploration of materiality and cultural narratives is a testament to my commitment to honoring and preserving the essence of our heritage. Through my art, I invite viewers to join me in this journey of rediscovery, reflection, and a re-imagination of our shared cultural legacy.
