a beautiful slum?
About the project
Who sits at your kitchen counter as an artist
For far too long, Kibra, originally named after the Nubian word for Forest, has been as black and white. As a slum and nothing more. The eyes of the people who do not live in our communities have characterized it during the past and recent times. I have always believed that the architecture of a place is the people, it’s almost impossible to destroy a person’s connection to a place. What comes to your mind when you hear the word SLUM? Do you only see the oppression, do you only see the violence or do you see the beauty and endless possibilities?
