Description

This piece tells a story inspired by a Ugandan folktale of Nambi , the first woman on earth. Nambi was the daughter of the highest god, Gulu who lived in a fortress above the clouds. Gulu had a nemesis called “Walumbe” who was cursed by Gulu to live in a dark pit in the ruins of earth for centuries.. However, one day Walumbe lured Nambi with sweet songs of Melodies and Nambi visited earth for the first time. Her and Walumbe formed a connection that grew because of how forbidden it was. Nambi used her powers to free Walumbe and Walumbe gifted her a magic mat that could fly. They used the mat to escape Gulu's wrath and they lived happily ever after in the fog of the clouds, where Gulu couldn’t find them. PS: This is entirely a work of fiction. As an artist, I believe my role is to bring back our ancestors' art of storytelling . This is my story about a forbidden love, between what's labelled good and evil. For is anyone fully good or fully evil? Aren’t we evil because of a sin committed. Aren’t we good because of a good deed done?
