Future Design of the
Shibir Nilotic Gallery For Modern African Art
I envisioned the Nilotic Gallery as a space where African heritage, contemporary art, and indigenous craftsmanship converge. Some time ago, I designed a concept for how this gallery could be built and relocated in the future, reflecting my deep commitment to preserving and evolving African artistic traditions.
My dream is to establish a creative hub that inspires scholars, artists, designers, poets, and writers to collaborate, conduct research, and share their knowledge with future generations. The Nilotic Gallery of African Modern Art would be the culmination of my artistic research an intersection of African contemporary art, folklore, and traditional craftsmanship. More than just an exhibition space, it would serve as a cultural landmark, fostering artistic innovation and dialogue.
This project is my tribute to Africa a celebration of its rich heritage, creativity, and enduring artistic legacy. The gallery would highlight contemporary academic perspectives on the art of indigenous Nilotic tribes while providing a platform for underrepresented artists. Through this endeavor, I strive to create opportunities for emerging talents, bridge cultural dialogues, and amplify artistic voices that deserve recognition.
This would be my Homage to Africa!
