The Past Will Be Like the Future

Jonathan Sölanke Gathaara Fraser’s practice is an ode to curiosity, to care and to paying close attention to the world around him. For the last 5 years, he has been using drawing, and more recently sound and installation, as a kind of auxiliary sense with which to observe and record his environment. For his second solo at Circle, the artist invites us to share in the experience of paying close and careful attention, stepping into observation through embodiment; a departure from the usual intellectualisation of our experiences of artwork and the world around us. Fraser has extensively exhibited in group shows in Nairobi, most recently 2025’s Notes on Friendship: Breaking Bread, a group show organised jointly by the Nairobi Contemporary Arts Institute (NCAI, Kenya) and Savannah Centre for Contemporary Art, Tamale (SCCA, Ghana). In 2021, his first solo exhibition, There Is A Time and A Place, was held at Circle Art Gallery, Nairobi. He studied Fine Art at Kenyatta University, and counts his experiences
