Hygiene and Sanitation  workshop:  By Uganda Community Art Skills Development  and Recycling  (UCASDR)

Last week Uganda community Art skills Development and recycling,  trained kalerwe children to use Art to Address ,hygiene and sanitation issues

This came to my mind due to poor sanitation around the place which includes poor disposal of garbage. Therefore I have employed recycling to handle this challenge and improved skill development hence job creation sustainability leading to low Virtuous cycle of poverty ,theft etc.

Participants  used skills acquired to draw  sanitation and Hygiene objects used in a home.

We were privileged  to host former students of school of Industrial and Fine Arts Makerere University students and the Founders of Brezlo,  a photography and Video editing company  located a long Sir Apollo Kagwa Road.

 On behalf of UCASDR I extend my  Gratitude towards  Joan and Geraldine  students from Performing Arts and Film -Makerere University

Brezlo Photography and Editing company and The Management of Godwins for providing a free space for the workshops.

I believe Art can change the society.please keep following me!!

Project Number3

For the Vast majority of residence in Uganda clean water is scarce and precious ,only 17%have piped water. Although, water is essential  for the survival ,for personal hygiene ,for the growing of crops  and for simple consumption it appears to be a luxury. with this piece I wanted to emphasize the importance  of clean water and its value. The woman in painting  is wearing a necklace  made out of water drops with pride, as if it would be made out of Diamond.

Project Number 10

Project Title: Big Fish

This painting critics ethics in business. this surrealistic painting of a fish in a suit inspired by the failure to prosecute the promoters of corruption in Uganda .The Figure speech  "letting the big fish swim" means to not act against the the inequality and letting the high rank individuals abuse their power for personal again. For the background I used soft pastel and water to create a flowing  effect. Then I utilized water colours  for  the head of the fish and acrylic paint for the suite.
