House Art Transgendered characters, violent and sexual content... House crossed the barriers and paints what is normally considered taboo. Maybe this is why his paintings sell so well in Nairobi - they are unique! I met House at his home in the Ngecha village about an hour outside of Nairobi, and what a great host he was - see photo at left. His wife brought us tea and we sat around talking for hours. He had his friend Coco Jim, a wood sculptor there also, who proved to be very charming and humorous. Ngecha is well known as an artists commune, and is the
area where many now-famous artists began their careers (I will be doing a
feature on the Ngecha Artists Association in the future). But now House has
branched-out on his own and has found a nice following for his art. He lives a
modest and relaxed lifestyle in Ngecha, allowing him plenty of time to paint and
gather bizarre ideas for more paintings. If you are interested in any of these paintings: |
