About

“This for That” explores the internal triggers that lead people to make bad choices. It looks at the ills of society and asks if we are part of allowing those ills to thrive.

Michael Musyoka cites examples from his own life where his morality has been challenged and uses these stories to identify with the audience.

David Thuku classifies society into four segments of action and non-action and asks what stage we are in as individuals.

The exhibition takes an intense but anecdotal view on today’s society.

The Art Space is open on weekdays from 10am – 5pm and Saturday from 12pm – 4pm. (Closed Sundays except by appointment).
