About
SOI: The Three Chapters; paintings from three generations within the Soi Dynasty. From the dancing animals of Ancent Soi, along with his beautifully detailed anthropological record of the Maasai and Kamba culture, to the saucy and politically incorrect acrylics of his son Michael and ending with the beautifully observed, honest paintings of his fifteen year old daughter Malli, the exhibition spans the generations. Three distinct styles, three diverse frames of reference but with a curiously strong thread which runs down through the generations.
Curated by Thom Ogonga, the show is a fascinating and beautiful vignette of one family's view of their culture, it's influences and their immediate surroundings.
