Born in Nigeria and currently based in New York, Ibe graduated summa cum laude from the University of Benin, Nigeria. He continued his studies for an MFA at Georgia State University in Atlanta and the Pratt Institute of NY where he is currently based. His recent work uses indigenous forms and content in African art and architecture as a conceptual backdrop.

"Faith, Hope, Charity" was painted by Mary Ellen D'Agostino, sister-in-law of Nyumbani's founder, Father Angelo D'Agostino.

Mary Ellen is married to Joseph D'Agostino, Father D'Ag's younger brother. This piece consists of watercolor portraits of three women in a single frame. The women are grandmothers (Shushus in Swahili) who serve as house mothers in the Kitui Village located in the eastern province of Kenya. Kitui Village has 1,000 children in 100 homes and the Shushus provide a loving setting for those in their care.

Mary Ellen has volunteered at Nyumbani and worked with these exceptional ladies who exhibit a caring and positive spirit that brings love and stability to so many of the children who are orphans. With deep gratitude to these unselfish guardians, the portraits are meant to honor the Shushu's as well as all present and past caregivers serving Nyumbani.

(Mary Ellen painted these portraits from photographs taken by Jack Dausman, a Nyumbani Board member married to Michele Knoeber Dausman who is a niece of Father D'Agostino. The Dausmans have visited Nyumbani several times and Jack has particularly enjoyed photographing the Shushus.)

African Magic by Julia Cairns

This is a framed and matted print of an original watercolor. It is a whimsical portrayal of an African mother and child in African nature with a monkey, a crow and other animals by British artist Julia Cairns who spent many years living in Africa.

In her own words: "My work has been described as 'whimsical', 'naive' and sometimes 'Folk Art' but I don't believe it can be really categorized as any of these. I often paint African Life and that can be translated into any life. It's just that the people I paint describe a moment in time that happens to be in Africa. Africa is a joyous place, despite the ravages that natural disasters and political unrest bring to it. There is a resilience and fortitude in the people, and they have the ability to overcome intense hardships, never dwelling on what has been but on the present moment which after all is all we have."

Dimensions of the framed print: 9 x 7 1/4 inches.

Pink and White Soapstone

Soapstone is a metamorphic rock composed largely of the magnesium-rich mineral talc. African soapstone, also known as Kisii soapstone, comes from Kisii county in southwestern Kenya and it's one of the softest known minerals, making it easy to carve. While it can be found all over the world, Kenyan soapstone is considered unique and it naturally comes in all different colors.

White and pink colored soapstone is softer and easier to work with, while black soapstone is the hardest. Once a piece is finished, it is then sanded and polished. Depending on the piece, the soapstone can also be dyed and painted in bright beautiful colors. Men are in charge of mining and carving while women are responsible for sanding, dyeing, painting, and polishing.

This pink and black soapstone plate measures 7 inches in diameter.
