Kato Maina Okello
Woodcarving artist in Kasarani
- 🇰🇪 Kasarani, Nairobi, Kenya
- Orchid Art Collective
- Since 1993
- English
I work mostly in woodcarving, sometimes oil painting. My first show was in 1993 at Orchid Art Collective, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
Most of my work is inspired by the river near my house. I volunteer at the food bank on Saturdays.
Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.
More about Kato
I've had 10 small exhibitions over the years. My favorite was the one with the worst lighting.

What gifts mean to Kato: I'd put a gift toward a kiln repair. It's been a long time coming.
