We help girls affected by HIV stay in school
Your support provides school fees, emotional care, and monthly creative workshops that build confidence and healing.
I am exhibiting at Un'Alike
May 2026, Geneva
For Un’Alike, I am presenting a series of pastel landscapes exploring light, water, and atmosphere.
My work often begins with places I know—Geneva, Kenya, moments of travel—but it quickly moves beyond what is seen. I am interested in how a place feels, and how that feeling can be held through colour, space, and simplicity.
Working in pastel allows me to layer gently, letting colours meet, dissolve, and breathe. These works sit somewhere between landscape and emotion—quiet, open, and intentionally unresolved.
Alongside my painting, I run art sessions with young people living with HIV in Kenya and this is open to all to join online once a month. This work is at the heart of my practice. It reminds me that art does not need to be perfect or complete—it needs to be honest, and it needs to be felt.
