Exhibition: Village Gentrification, Sept. 28 – Oct. 31 2019 @ One Off Contemporary Gallery

by with No Comment art exhibitsevents


Opening: September 28, 2019
Venue: One Off Contemporary Gallery
Time: noon – 5 pm

Until October 31, 2019

About
One Off is delighted to feature Thom Ogonga’s ‘Village Gentrification’, a collection of mainly black and white prints, in its main exhibition space through October 2019.

Thom says of his work ‘I am interested in the daily happenings around the space I live in and even more fascinated by the nocturnal activities. All the things that color the night; bar brawls, disco scenes, gambling, prostitution etc. excite the artist in me and feature prominently in my artistic practice’.

An accompanying exhibition of prints by a selection of other artists working in Nairobi will be shown in our additional space at #16 Rosslyn Lone Tree.

This show is curated by Thom Ogonga.
