Kweli Studio
"My work begins with listening. I gather forgotten photographs, weathered papers, botanical pigments, reclaimed materials, and stories that might otherwise disappear. Through slow processes of mixing, painting, printing, staining, layering, and mark making, I explore what these materials remember and what they still have to teach us."
Nature’s Art Supplies & Ancestral Connections
Saint of Resilience, Kweli Kitwana © 2020, naturally pigmented acrylic on canvas.
I am collecting nature’s gifts and connecting them to memories and stories of people and forgotten legacies. By using natural pigments, the waters, the sunlight, plant-based mediums and found items, my creations have no limit—as the earth is always giving.
