Peterson Kamwathi

For the last few years, Kamwathi has been considered one of the region’s most inventive artists, responding to the complex political and social issues around him. His work combines clear conceptual elements and rich content with technical mastery particularly of the woodcut process. Kamwathi has had several solo exhibitions, most recently at the Frost Museum, Miami in 2013 and his work is in many international collections. He has participated in numerous international workshops and residencies including printmaking at the London Print Studio in 2006, Art Omi International artist residency, New York in 2009 and as a Civitella Ranieri fellow in 2012.
