FOTEA, in collaboration with FORMAT are pleased to announce a new collaborative project: ‘Kipya Ki?’
Kipya ki? is a Luganda phrase meaning ‘What’s New?’ This collaboration mixes cross-curating, digital collaboration and will showcase photographers working on the emergent forms of the medium from across East Africa and the UK.
Led by the teams at FOTEA and FORMAT, with two emerging curators, from the UK and Uganda, who are collaborating with 10 emerging artists from both countries to explore the East African and British photographic (and related media) landscapes to platform new ways of working.
