Universal Truths
© Thandiwe MuriuUniversal Truths is a capsule series created by the Artist which speaks about experiences that connect us all as human beings and are universally true no matter what culture, no matter what country, no matter what season of life you are in.
Within the series the Artist explored four different themes: Brotherhood as symbolic of the closeness shared by siblings or shared in a deep, rich friendship. Asention which acknowledges the fact that evey human holds ambition and the hope for growth. Unity which looks at the power of community, such as the Kenyan spirit where neighbour helps neighbour; or even that our pain can unite us as human beings. Finally, Discord visualises the bond that remains despite unrest or the lack of harmony which ties two people together- especially where romatic love is involved between two people.
