Title: Home schooling
Size: 60cm X 50cm
Media: acrylics on canvas
Apio is 19 years, Ugandan. She started drawing while still very young at her primary level. She used to draw things like stickmen, flowers, boys and girls holding hands, and trees just like any other child. The objects she draws about now are out of the world. She doesn’t enjoy drawing interiors but imaginary things. She loves art as well as fashion and hopes to pursue both. Apio has an eye for art, and she loves everything artistic and enjoys putting things together. She also thinks that, later on, she will venture into events. As an artist, she gets her inspiration online, especially when she sees artworks from other artists. She doesn’t like to draw human faces because they give her a hard time, but she also knows that that’s not an excuse.

In 2018, he started to draw and learned about art as an opportunity from the Nakivaale refugee settlement located in the Isingiro district. He dreams of being a great artist in the world one day. He says that staying in a refugee settlement has allowed him to have a lot of time on his hands, and he uses it to make art. He paints about school life, Pan Africanism, and daily life. Being part of this exhibition is a dream come true. He advises fellow children to study hard when they have an opportunity because not everyone has the same opportunity.
