My tribute to ‘Panye’ . The art community is mourning a great soul. A legendary artist who inspired many. RIP bro

We are saddened by the passing of Patrick Mukabi, whose art brought Nairobi’s stories and spirit into our spaces at Java House. His legacy lives on in every brushstroke. Rest well, Patrick Mukabi. Our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and the creative community.

I mourn the passing of Patrick Mukabi, the artist behind the iconic paintings in all Java House wall paintings. As a newbie journalist, my bery first assignment was to cover the story of how Mukabi memorialised the 1998 bombing of the US embassy in Nairobi. I have followed his work over the years and my best series from his collection was Market Women. Mukabi did a lot of work teaching youngsters to paint. But above all, he immortalised many aspects of Nairobi social life. He is a national treasure. The city of Nairobi owes him a great of gratitude. We need a City Arts Council to recognise such artists Wangui Maina and Dennis Onsarigo.

Walking through the compound that houses the Kasubi Tombs, the main path leads to what should be an entrance. But it ends at one of the layers of thatch covering the 25-foot structure known as Muzibu Azala Mpanga. It looks like a giant basket turned upside down. If it weren’t for the rows of shoes laid neatly outside, you’d never know there was a way in. cnn.it/3QeESJn
