I work mostly in photography, sometimes mural painting. My first show was in 1983 at Zanzibar City Art Collective, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
Most of my work is inspired by the people on my bus route. I bake for the whole street at New Year.
I never expected anything in return, but a kind word always makes my day.

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