Injection captures the haunting memories of innocent lives marred by exploitation and betrayal. This piece confronts the pain inflicted on those who, often through no fault of their own, become targets of harm—while those entrusted with their protection remain indifferent, or worse, become perpetrators themselves. With this work, I aim to spotlight the silent suffering of the vulnerable and challenge viewers to consider the unspoken cries of those who have been wronged. Injection is a call to acknowledge and confront this complicity, to recognize the shadows of betrayal that deepen their pain, and to amplify their voices in pursuit of justice.

My favourite wild animal is a giraffe. I love it because of its height, spots and also its ability to eat leaves on top of trees. In this artwork, I have also painted butterflies as they fly towards my favourite animal. I hope you love butterflies too. – Ashameza

My father works in Kosovo trading centre as a Boda Boda rider. They have a stage where they park their motorcycles in front of a mobile money shop. At their stage, when they see a customer coming, every one of them rushes to go and pick him or her. He tells me that life there is fun but sometimes challenging because some days, he can return without any money because customers are lost. I did this artwork to celebrate my father and his job, I hope to become a doctor when I grow up and support my family. – Agaba

Agriculture is the backbone of Uganda because it provides us with food. When you plant your seeds, you have a hope to harvest at the right time. When you don’t plant, there’s nothing to harvest at all. This artwork is of me together with my mother and young sister while planting some vegetables in our backyard garden. –Najjuma

Every animal deserves to have a home. A place where it can sleep without being disturbed. This artwork is about a birdhouse that community members built for a bird that woke them up every day. This story was from a book that I read, but I don’t remember the name. What I recall is how beautiful the bird was and its house too. – Swabura
