| Ahmed Kungu | |
Born in 1965 in Nairobi, Kenya, I established a successful small business in Lamu rural costal Kenya in 1986. A move to the UK in 1989 continued my artistic development and led to exhibitions throughout the UK from St Andrews in Scotland to the Millennium Dome in London. More recently there have been several exhibitions in Calderdale and Bradford, W. Yorkshire, displaying paintings which combine the power of my African heritage with impressions of modern day life in the UK and the wider world. |

| 关于此艺术家 | |
Working primarily with acrylics I have pioneered my own style of mixed media pieces, both abstracts and landscapes. Using a unique method of printing from hand-cut stencils combined with painting my work can take many moods from vivid and exciting through to dreamy and relaxed. |
