Alfajiri (Swahili for sunrise) organization is proud to present artwork created by upcoming creative artists on the path to greatness. These individual and unique young artists are creating artworks that indeed heal and touch the soul. The artists paint together in the grounds of a beautiful former monastery, in Nairobi once the community of Taize from France.

The founder of Alfajiri, Lenore Boyd a sculptor, originated from a family of five generations of artists in Australia. She brought her love and experience of art to the ghetto where the talents of truly gifted people of Africa have been mentored and nurtured with wonderful and surprising results.

The quality, beauty and pathos of their work is worthy of any gallery and country in the world and discovery of these talents is and will be a gift to Kenya and the world.

“Today they have as much potential as any other artist… and possibly more because of their experiences in life. Their paintings show the beauty of life and the worst because artists work from emotions that run deep.” Gavulu, One Off Art Gallery, Nairobi, Kenya, Africa

Mona Berga offers you her creative vision, thanks to her training at the prestigious school of Beaux-Arts.

She resides in France and Canada to participate in numerous fairs, expositions and organize workshops at her gallery in Antibes and Toronto.

Abstract Expressionism, the famous New York school, and French Impressionists are the major influences on her art.

You can see that she constantly explores these two styles of painting with great confidence. Her paintings are generous in colours, light and energy, they are exhibited by several North American and European galleries.

We hope you can join us in celebrating art and creativity.

Elizabeth Wessel expresses her art through the prism of fashion.

The borderline between design and painting is narrow.

She interprets the world surrounding her with a graphic style going directly to the essentials.

With a strong and precise line emanating from the rapid stylised sketches of Haute Couture, her subjects are displayed with both delicacy and vigor.

Her style is defined by an arrogant elegance nourished by her experience as a fashion designer, cultivating a bare chic and enliving it with impertinent humour

We hope you can join us in celebrating art and creativity.

KAROLINA Sávolt

She is not only one of the youngest painters of our time, but her signature style is hard to miss.

Her authentic female figures, fairy-tale like animals, vivid colors and bright golds melt into a captivating magical realism which draws attention to the beauty and energy surrounding our world.

Iris Bodenburg is an outstanding and highly esteemed artist with an excellent academic education as a painter and graphic artist.

She has acquired an enormous skill in watercolour painting and has made this her unmistakable trademark.

Her watercolour art on the special coarsely structured deckle-edge sheets from Nepal, the extremely high-quality Kahari Himalaya paper, and Awagami paper from Japan requires a very great artistic mastery.

Especially figurative painting is a supreme challenge. The colours flow on the unique paper and have a course that has to be considered and mastered. Iris Bodenburg is a singular talent in this demanding artistic discipline.

Join us and let yourself be enchanted by these beautiful paintings.
