RECOGNITION
I'm Wesley, an acrylic artist born and raised in Kibera, Nairobi. What began as daily childhood drawings became my path when my father bought my first drawing book and Uweza became my artistic home. I paint the resilience, creativity and dignity of Kibera — the truth outsiders miss. My work challenges stereotypes about my home and shows Kibera as it truly is: a place of opportunity, community, and strength.
Degree holder in history and international relations
I have been to several group exhibitions
I have exhibited at alliance franchise,
Exhibited at Kobo with the seven artists collective and at the Nairobi national museum
