“Kabaka nga ava e Munyonyo mu Lubili lwe nga ada e Mengo” ~ The king hailing from his Munyonyo Palace headed for Mengo ~ Yet another digital collage interpretation i have made of a scene described by Hamu Mukasa intended as picture pages to his Simuda Nyuma, one of the earliest recounts of the story of Uganda except the mythical or borderline - mythical stuff. The collages are constructed using my own contemporary photographs, and images from the archive of the Ham Mukasa Family/Foundation. Both the archival images and the Ham Mukasa image list were made accessible by @andreastultiens History In Progress Uganda & Ebifananyi endeavours. Famous artists like @artwasane and @sheila.nakitende are wading these obscure waters too. ✅ #HamMukasa #SimudaNyuma #Ebifananyi #HIPUganda #AndreaStultiens #CanonGriffin #DigitalCollage #visualremix (at Munyonyo Speke Resort-Munyonyo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoVXxeJOzGU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Nga bawoza baziza omusango ogwobutakolera Kabaka” Approx. Translation: Guys accused of not showing up to work for the King pleading their case. My interpretations stretch the topic while delivering artistic visuals unencumbered by context. Sometimes delightful, sometimes gnarly, sublime is the word here. Certain prints of my digital collage art may be acquired via @stellenboschtriennale, and mostly @afriartgallery. Here is another @crumanzi digital collage!
