Over the last year the Indigo Arts website has remained active despite the widespread shutdowns due to the COVID-19 virus. Under current rules I have been able to resume operations but must limit visitors to the gallery, by appointment only. I am able to pack and ship most orders within a few days. Shipping times have increased during this period.
Note: USPS has been so slow that we recommend avoiding it entirely, at least for the present. Parcels sent by 2 or 3 Day Priority Mail may take 2 to 4 weeks to arrive.
Please stay safe in these difficult times.
We wish you all a healthier, saner and more civil 2021.
Kivuthi Mbuno was a game tracker from rural Makueni district who settled in Langata near old failed coffee farm Karen Blixen (Isak Dineson). He worked for the American photographer Peter Beard, among others and was clearly influenced by the drawings of Blixen’s old cook, Kamante Gatura. His surreal colored pencil drawings depict the rural tribal world of his childhood.
