The People of Kenya portrait exhibition brings together the vibrant painted work of Kenyan artist Patrick Kinuthia. For over 20 years Kinuthia has been creating colourful, expressive and personal artwork from his studio in Red Hill, Nairobi.
Kinuthia is interested in portraying the culture within a culture, focusing on the many tribes within Kenya and their diversity.
