Finding Voice: Artists showcase work addressing society issues

An artist’s voice is what separates him or her from another. It is this voice that individual artists use to express themselves.
Though theirs is a joint effort, this is exactly what Boniface Maina and Michael Musyoka have been trying to showcase through their exhibition dubbed Finding Voice… Maisha, Mitush, Music and other Matters currently going on at the Exhibition Hall in Village Market.

At first glance it is clear much thought was put in coming up with Boniface Maina’s paintings. It takes more than a first look to decode the message behind the colour, images, acrylics and canvas. The pieces speak about grave issues affecting the society that we would otherwise only whisper.
