Author Information

Sane Wadu (b. 1954) started his career in painting in 1983, and is one of the founding members of Ngecha Artist Association. Wadu currently runs, with his wife Eunice Wadu, the Sane Wadu Trust for children's education, where he conducts art workshops, as well as art therapy sessions in prisons and in Naivasha. Rosie Olang' Odhiambo is a writer, artist and independent curator based in Nairobi, Kenya. Her current artistic and curatorial interests explore zines, artist's books and other unconventional book structures as formats to play across various disciplines-visual arts, literature, and poetry-engaging with decolonial, queer, feminist, and black radical traditions. Rosie has worked in research, communications, writing, and project management roles with arts and culture organizations in East Africa and the United States. She is the co-founder of MagicDoor, an experimental imprint in Nairobi, and has previously served as the Head of Programs at the Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute (NCAI). In 2022, she participated in the 8th Edition of the Àsìkò School and is a scholar-in-residence at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Newfields, Indiana. Mukami Kuria is an almost-barrister, sometimes-art writer, once-in-a-while curator and occasional freelance editor living and working between Nairobi and London. She was the curator of I Hope So: Sane Wadu at NCAI in 2022. Under NCAI, she is a co-founder and co-convenor of The Gathering with Michael Armitage and also convened the NCAI Women in Sculpture Panel with Wangechi Mutu, Magdalene Odundo DBE and Chelenge Van Rampelberg on the occasion of the Ledge Sculpture intervention at the Royal Academy of Arts, London. Her editorial projects include Just A Book, part of the Contact Zones NRB series, and she has written commissioned texts for Michael Armitage: The Chapel at South London Gallery, and for the Goethe Institute Project, Ten Cities. Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute (NCAI) is a nonprofit visual-arts space dedicated to the growth and preservation of contemporary art in East Africa. Established in 2020, NCAI builds on a rich legacy of art projects and institutions in the region, and seeks to tell the stories of the artists and projects that have come to shape the region's contemporary art scene. Through exhibitions, the development of an East African art archive, an extensive public program of talks, and a multidisciplinary educational program, NCAI serves as an inspiring cultural space and a resource for the thriving East African arts community.
