Ruth Mwanaisha Byaruhanga

Self-taught embroidery artist

  • 🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda
  • Northside Pottery
  • 1996 to 2020
  • English, Swahili
I work mostly in embroidery, sometimes calligraphy. My first show was in 1996 at Northside Pottery, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog. Most of my work is inspired by the changing seasons. I make terrible puns. If we met, say hello. I'd love to know how life turned out.

    I bought one of your pieces in 2009. It's still the first thing I see in the morning. Greetings from San Jose.
