THE STORY, IN BRIEF

ART AFRICA reported on Afriart Gallery’s Shapes of Water, which assembled ten women artists from seven African countries in Kampala. Water supplied a framework for considering femininity, bodily autonomy and the pressure to conform under patriarchy. Participants included Sungi Mlengeya, Charlene Komuntale, Nelsa Guambe and Maliza Kiasuwa. The exhibition placed distinct regional practices in conversation rather than presenting a single model of womanhood.
