​I am Baraka Shamia, a Kenyan visual artist born in 1996. I pursued a BA in Fine art and Design at Kenyatta University. My works have featured in group exhibitions in Kenya and Germany. I worked part time as studio assistant at Brush Tu artists’ studio before moving out of Nairobi to find my space. I work and live in Kakamega.
