Oil on Lubugo bark cloth
From The Kenyan Election Series
In the run-up to the 2017 elections in Kenya, Armitage joined a local TV crew filming an opposition party rally in Uhuru Park, Nairobi. The atmosphere he experienced there and the carnivalesque scenes he witnessed inspired this series of paintings in which Armitage explores power dynamics and the links between religious rhetoric, pathos and politics.

Michael Armitage: Paradise Edict
(May — September 2021)
Michael Armitage is a Kenyan-born artist who works between Nairobi and London. His colourful, dreamlike paintings are loaded with provocative perspectives that play with visual narratives and challenge cultural assumptions, exploring politics, history, civil unrest and sexuality.
Made using Lubugo bark cloth, a culturally important material made of tree bark by the Baganda people in Uganda, many of his large-scale works draw on contemporary events, combining these with Western painting motifs.
This spring – just over 10 years since Armitage graduated from the Royal Academy Schools – we bring together 15 of his large-scale paintings from the past six years, exploring East African landscapes, politics and society.
Alongside will be a selection of 31 works by six East African contemporary artists: Meek Gichugu, Jak Katarikawe, Theresa Musoke, Asaph Ng’ethe Macua, Elimo Njau and Sane Wadu. Chosen by Armitage for their important role in shaping figurative painting in Kenya, these seminal artists have also had a profound impact on his own artistic development. A version of this part of the exhibition will be shown at the Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute, a non-profit visual arts space founded by Armitage.

Together, they inspected Monkl's handiwork: Elly was proud to realise that she could identify dropped stitches, turned-work, wrong and right sides and even short-rows! Perhaps she wasn't such a terrible knitter afterall.

Antonio Carlos Jobim diceva che per la musica brasiliana la tristezza e la nostalgia condividono la stessa bellezza e hanno la stessa dignità della felicità .

Adult spelling bee at the Brattle. I finished third, missing out on "flocculus." Just like the last time I competed in a spelling bee, when I was 13, I prefaced one of the words I spelled correctly with "I'm really drunk, so let's give this a shot..."
