Ugandan conceptual and visual artist Samson Ssenkaaba aka Xenson is holding his first-ever solo exhibition in Nairobi and his first institutional exhibition in East Africa at the Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute.
The exhibition titled Olidde Mupipa, which opened on April 4 and runs up to July 13, focuses on sculpture and installation. It is featuring six newly created pieces that widen Xenson’s research of items and materials, as well as the stories they tell about the distinct cultural contexts from which they are derived.
