me!!
I was Glad to be invited by international school of Uganda(ISU)
Located along Entebbe Road -Lubowa for the students art exhibition ,it was
so wonderful to meet an Artist by the
name of Tamara Rode she uses Art to address water issues ,Economic and social
issues in the community. I was impressed by her
beautiful colors, titles and her themes are so educative and catching ,especially my favorite was the water scarcity which reminds me of the Scarcity of water in my community where
I live. see the link of water problems in Uganda

The gay bill in Uganda raised so many questions and answers in the country(Uganda) in this show the Art work titled the Gay Bill attracted
a lot of attention from the viewers
including students and other Art lovers.

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.
