Labyrinth

Exhibition: Labyrinth by Jackie Karuti, Jan. 22 – Feb. 6 2015 @ Kuona Trust

by with No Comment art exhibits

Labyrinth
Exhibition opens: 6pm Thursday, 22nd January 2015
The exhibition runs until Friday, 6th February 2015
Free Admission

About
Labyrinth explores the banality of life by use of repetition. It reflects a bored consistency with an implied journey to an unknown destination,borne out of being stuck in the same place, doing the same thing over and over again.

Jackie has chosen a variety of media to approach this thought provoking work by experimenting with both sound and video,installation art, as well as an interesting set of mixed-media pieces.

Venue: Goethe-Institut, Library
Admission: free

The new year 2015 edition of the monthly Arterial Network CatchUp will deal with the topic “How I Made It: Conversations with Creative Minds”.

Come and be part of this inspiring talk which will feature leading entrepreneurs in the Kenyan creative economy.
