Elsadig Janka, Gloria Kiconco, Charity Atukunda
OVERVIEW
This exhibition brings together three contemporary
artists in conversation with Transition Magazine.
Charity Atukunda, Elsadig Janka and Gloria
Kiconco will show newly commissioned artwork.
Each artist uses their unique process and medium,
ranging from illustration to photography to zine
making as a staging ground to explore questions of
freedom and movement. Linking vast biographies
across Africa and the USA, these artworks connect
the legacy of Uganda’s literary heritage in the
1960s and 1970s to today’s concerns of security.
The artwork is displayed in an immersive setting to
reveal the deeply intimate issues of expression and
matters of globalised conflict.
