Painter Patrick Mukabi at his painting shop at Karen Village, Nairobi. [Elvis Ogina,Standard]
Eccentricity is almost a requirement in art, so I find it comically stereotypical when Patrick Mukabi pulls an empty paint can to sit on for our interview. He has insisted that I use the only seat in the vicinity, a jungle green folding camping chair in the art studio. The can with a piece of plywood over the top will do for him.
