Uganda: Sentimental Art Is Simply Beautiful

The art of sentimentality is an apt description of Amos Sentongo works currently on show at Karibu Art Gallery in Bukoto, Kampala. The artist calls his collection of highly expressive pieces that appear rooted in his devout Christian life, 'Simply Beautiful'.

Visitors will be enchanted by his warm palette of greens, orange, red, sunny yellow, pink, black and brown. These colours, he says, symbolise the environment he lives in at Watoto Church Community. They are also intended to celebrate the mood of living a positive life full of love, joy, humility and peace.
