ART BIOGRAPHY
Nedia were is a self-taught contemporary artist, born and raised in Kenya. Living and working in Nairobi currently. The deep passion for art started way back during his childhood. He used to copy cartoons from comic books and newspaper and experimenting on different materials. He was a sign writer during his teenage years. Over the years Nedia has harnessed his own unique style which has been influenced by sign writing experience.
Sparked by his grandfather who would carry a newspaper on his way home after a hard days work, Nedia was fascinated by the numerous articles and found a deep connection with the newspaper which will also reflect in his work.
