La Biennale d'Arte di Venezia, or the Venice Biennale, has returned after three years. The Biennale runs from April 23 until November 27. Titled The Milk of Dreams, nine out of the 80 participating countries are from Africa.
This is the first year that Uganda is participating, represented by multimedia artist Collin Sekajugo and visual-performing artist Pamela Acaye. Sekajugo is showcasing figurative paintings that reflect on contemporary urban life. Acaye’s artwork, made from bark cloth and woven fibres, highlights the use of sustainable materials.
