UM Gallery Womans Month - June 2022

 Women's Month Exhibition titled "Breaking the Bias Value Our Differences"  

started 1 June to 31 June 

Thursday - Sunday 10 am  - 7 pm 

@ UM Gallery, First Floor, The Waterfront Karen, Nairobi

It was a Celebration of the Uniqueness, Beauty , Essence of Women and their role in community and society !   The title of the exhibition speaks for itself. Artworks were on display that expressed Artists interpretation of breaking the bias around gender equality, womens rights, women at work, societal bias of women. 

While creating my own artworks, I contemplated on the idea of the multi-faceted nature of The Woman figure. The same woman who can keep a child in her belly for 9 months, can be a housewife a CEO or anything she wants to be. I reflected on the stigma around the right role of a woman  and the exhibition was my way to highlight this very important topic. It is women who can make that change.

As a woman, how do I express my individuality, what is my response to the daily encounters of life and the energies within me that I ultimately reflect unto the world. Every artist gave her own interpretation.

The bar was set high as + 40 Women Artists participated with inspiring artworks. My new piece "Freedom to Fly"  🎨 was on display for sale!
