2nd international ‘art in the forest’ workshop in Nairobi Kenya 2007

The forest workshop has various objectives. Firstly, to invite the Kenyan public to “re-look” at the issue of deforestation and our loss of wilderness sites and to re-ignite our desire to keep these sites healthy and alive. Secondly, to challenge Kenyan artists to work in a completely different and new environment which may make them and the public question their ideas on art.
