Henry Mzili Mujunga

He strongly advocates the importance of networking amongst contemporary African artists in order to share their culture and create an interesting dialogue with the art being produced globally.

Henry ’Mzili’ Mujunga's portraits feature numerous, seemingly disparate objects brought together into a single frame.

Individuals often rely on their outward appearance, their possessions, even their environments (and their interactions within them) to communicate their own vision of themselves.

In addition, they become, for the viewer, a point of departure from which to begin building an understanding of identity in present-day urban Kampala.

Mzili is a winner of the Royal Overseas League (ROSL) Art Scholarship 2003 and has exhibited in galleries in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria, Togo, Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Ghana, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, South Africa and the Netherlands.
