Ancestors Of Tomorrow

To mark this milestone, the Alliance Française has invited the stylist and visual artist, Kevo Abbra, to present his new body of photographic and sculptural work, Ancestors of Tomorrow, inspired by the cultural memory, stories, and traditions of the people of Lamu and Turkana. Through this installation, Abbra invites us to turn the lens towards the future without leaving the past behind. Drawing from ancestry, identity, and imagination, he asks us to envision a world where African histories, cultures and dreams shape what comes next.

Join us for the opening this Thursday, 3rd September.
