Sebastian Kiarie

Sebastian Kiarie’s career began in the early 1990s as part of the Ngecha Village art community. He says, ‘as opposed to painting objects accurately and informatively, I paint with an intent to capture the essence and feeling of a given moment. I have an interest in personal mythologies, and symbolism is evident in my work, both in stylized figures and using colours subjectively.’

Kiarie has exhibited in Germany, the US. UK, Japan, Zambia, South Africa, South Korea and U.A.E.
