African Art
- from Mwanza
The
artist, Simon Ndokeji (picture left) - born in Kisesa, Mwanza
(1962), married to Mama Susan Martine and father to three sons.
Mr. Simon is famous for his ‘Wax batiks’ - and
the batiks from his hand are definitely far from the ordinary tourist junk copies
- sold on every street corner in Arusha and Dar es Salaam.
Simon Ndokeji is also the artist behind several decorations in Mwanza - e.g.
at Tilapia
Hotel. On top of that - he is international known and most appreciated. He has
just finished his second tour to Europe.
