‘Kuiyu’ is a Queer Nairobian. Primarily an Artist, my art draws from multiple influences without leaning on one in particular. A multidisciplinary creative, I am a singer, songwriter, poet and graphic designer. My works are grounded on the value of self love & self awareness, authentic expression & African spectrum representation. Exploring romanticism, identity and orientations, examining spirituality and the emancipation of the African mind.
Words are my ally. It is through them that I paint a picture of the present, reminisce on past journeys while crafting the vision of our shared futures. While words are enough, visual expressions are my secondary wing man. Through variated imagery, i focus on building multi dimensional pictures, motion & still, to create dialogue with my audiences
