Simiyu Okello Kato

Painter, potter and teacher at Old Beacon Gallery

  • 🇺🇬 Entebbe, Central Region, Uganda
  • Old Beacon Gallery
  • Since 1979
  • English, Swahili
I work mostly in glass art, sometimes photography. My first show was in 1979 at Old Beacon Gallery, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog. I take the work seriously, though not myself. My studio is always a bit of a mess. If we met, say hello. I'd love to know how life turned out.
What gifts mean to Simiyu: A gift would go toward materials for my next series.
