About the artists
Kofi Kayiga's art is the outer expression of an internal dialogue with the spirit, a reflection of all of his travels and extensive training in Jamaica, the United Kingdom and Uganda. Art Historian Edmund Barry Gaither compares Kayiga’s work to that of a houngan, a priest who draws veves or spiritual symbols on the floor of the temple to invoke the spirits. Kayiga feels that Jamaican Art is essentially African ; Jamaica to him is an extension of Africa.
Kayiga is a professor at Massachusetts College of Art, and an artist in the African American Master Artists in Residence Program (AAMARP) at Northeastern University.
Khalid Kodi is a painter, sculptor, installation and environmental artist from Sudan. His art displays images, which are often startling but clearly communicate the horror of the on-going tragedy in his homeland. Kodi seeks to inform the international community, through visual art, about issues confronting African societies, including internal colonialism / dictatorship, man-made famine, genocide, slavery, gender struggle, religious dogma /oppression, tribalism, and resistance to change. Kodi is an adjunct professor of art at Boston College, and an artist in the African American Master Artist in Residence Program ( AAMARP) at Northeastern University.
The African American Master Artists in Residence Program (AAMARP) is a center of excellence in multicultural visual and performing arts dedicated to creating an enriching cultural environment for a diverse community through exhibitions, concerts, performances, lectures and workshops. It remains a prominent center for discussion of the African Diaspora’s cultural growth and development. AAMARP is an adjunct of the Department of African American Studies at Northeastern University.
