Type Faces
Typeface & heroes is an art exhibition of Brian Omolo’s latest works

Opening: August 2, 2013
Venue: the Que pasa Bar & Bistro
Time: 6 pm

Exhibition Runs until August 23, 2013

The typeface artworks are little wisdoms and experiences that the artist has picked up along his journey as a designer, boiled down into a series of artworks that people can enjoy.

The hero artworks are an attempt to show a cross cultural upbringing. Growing up we all loved heroes like superman and batman but also loved hearing about the mighty animals of the wild like lions, tigers and gorillas so the idea of mixing them together to see awesomeness happen was quite fascinating.

The vision behind ‘Viongozi’ is to re-imagine the image and faces of the presidential candidates in a new and contemporary way. These famous faces and personalities that are constantly influencing and shaping our lives. The portraits are slightly abstracted with an addition of African graphics inspired by Kenyan art.

Our hope is for people to be amused, tickled! and to leave with a sense of unity and pride in our rich culture and diversity as Kenyans.
