5 years ago at @gallery1957 Rituals of Becoming performance lasted 336 hours (24 hours each day for 2 weeks) Curated by @mariarbojan Advisory Board @oseibonsu_ Personal technical assistance for the installations @martintoloku The genesis of this exhibition was a random visit by @mg.zakhem and @el_yesha_ to my studio while I was developing the frozen series (puberty rites and rituals of becoming and exploring my own transitions) At the time, I had no idea exactly what I shall become, but I was very certain it was an endless journey of becoming and to reclaim my freedom. #KillTheBill #crazinisTartisTstudiO #ritualsofbecoming #gallery1957 #lovecancureyou #LOVEWINS (at Gallery 1957) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ9aMWysNmQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

“I am motivated by the double standards of Kenyan life,” he admits. “I just love Nairobi to bits. It has so much to talk about as an artist or creative person. I Iove to document the lives of the Kenyan population.” Michael’s paintings, which are mostly produced from acrylics on canvas look funny and slightly comical and cartoon-ish at first sight. However, underneath the simultaneously oversimplified and exaggerated physical features of his subjects lies a deeper understanding of the complex nuances of public and private social relationships. Each work of art is more than certain to leave his audiences highly engaged in thought, and publicly or mentally deliberating the themes he cheekily addresses. Corruption, socio-political matters, Chinese involvement and interest in Kenyan affairs, the treatment of women sex workers, sex tourism and many other social engagements that he observes in Kenya. @michaelsoistudio is currently in Accra preparing for a collaborative show with @brightackwerh at @gallery1957 on April 12, 2018. The show titled "almost true" will be curated by Dr. @odurofrimpong. . . 📷: Nana Osei - 2018 . . #accra #ghana #africa #art #kenya #nairobi #painting #contemporaryart #exhibition #gallery1957 #michaelsoi #satire #streetstyle #artphotography #ashantiimmigrant #everydayafrica #dynamicafrica #artnewsafrica #accrawedey (at Gallery 1957)

Gallery 1957- which symbolizes the year Africa gained its independence- is a beautiful quaint art gallery located on the first floor of the Kaminsky Hotel in Ghana. These are a few of the masterpieces housed there and throughout the property.
