Our very own Njoki Ngumi and Jim Chuchu will be in conversation with the SHIFT Collective and Tuzi Creatives, speaking about their respective featured artworks in the Invisible Inventories exhibition. They'll discuss the concepts behind the artworks, and will also be answering all your questions about any of the artworks featured in the exhibition! They'll be online today (Wednesday 14th April 2021) at 7PM EAT, live on the International Inventories Programme’s Youtube page! 

For those who may not get a chance to see the exhibition in person, Jim and Njoki did a virtual tour of it on Instagram Live just last week (it was shot by collective member JP!) It is still up on IGTV now. Watch their tour here! 

'Invisible Inventories' is an exhibition project by the International Inventories Programme that premiered at the Nairobi National Museum in March this year, and will be running till May 2nd. The museum is open and is running in a COVID safe and aware way, in line with the Ministry of Health regulations and guidelines. You can find more information on the exhibition here. Do have a look (either in person or via this IG TV link) and let us know what you think on our socials: we’re present on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!
