BUMU Art Gallery

Blossoming Of Generations

In this latest exhibition, brushstrokes of two distinct artists converge in celebration of humanity and nature — and how each blossoms across and over time.

Blossoming of Generations showcases works that honor the vibrance of life, from the roots of ancestry to the ever-blooming branches of community.

In one corner, Damulira Siraj  brings to life compositions of bustling crowds and intimate gatherings pulsing with warmth and connection. These figures evoke the timeless dance of blossoming generations — people rising, thriving, and nurturing each other.

On the other hand, Mutyaba-Katende’s nature-centered canvases — with titles like Vine in Landscape, Big Leaves, and Canopy — ground the exhibition in the organic rhythm of the act of blossoming taking place in the natural world. His lush landscapes speak to quiet resilience, the cycles of regeneration, and the silent blossoming of life within marshes, under leaves, and across open skies.

Together, these artists remind us that blossoming is both a collective and individual story — of people and places, of memory and growth. In this exhibition, generations bloom not just in the flesh, but in the earth beneath and the skies above.

Hidden Beauty In Nature

 

“With nature, we live, we share, we care and we learn to love. The more we associate with nature, is the more we live a relaxed life.”

Edison Mugalu invites us to immerse ourselves in Hidden Beauty In Nature, a deeply personal exploration of the relationship between humanity and the natural world. This vibrant exhibition reflects Mugalu’s artistic vision, where nature becomes a muse and a source of peace, inspiration and renewal.

Each painting in this collection radiates with life, capturing the colours, textures and emotions of the natural world. Mugalu skillfully brings nature into our living spaces, transforming everyday environments into havens of tranquillity and positivity. His signature style, with its expressive brushstrokes and bold use of colour, breathes new energy into familiar landscapes, reminding us of the healing power of nature.

Through his work, Mugalu emphasizes the deep connection we share with the world around us. He challenges us to appreciate the beauty that often goes unnoticed and to embrace the lessons that nature teaches about harmony, resilience and love.

This exhibition is an invitation for us to reconnect with nature, to find solace and inspiration in its hidden beauty and to carry that positivity into our daily lives.

Abaana n’Abazzukulu (Children & Grandchildren)

This vibrant showcase celebrates the unbroken thread between generations—where the wisdom of elders meets the bold vision of youth. Abaana n’Abazzukulu brings together intricate embroidery, striking stencil art, and intimate painted portraits, each piece a dialogue between heritage and innovation.

Through stitched stories and painted faces, artists explore:

  • The transfer of knowledge (symbolized by embroidered patterns passed down through families)

  • Identity in flux (seen in layered stencils of childhood memories)

  • The face as a canvas of lineage (portraits that blur the lines between ancestor and descendant)

The Inaugural Art Exhibition: "Echoes of Origin"

We are proud to welcome you to the inaugural exhibition of our gallery—a space born from a vision to celebrate creativity, culture, and connection. This first showcase marks the beginning of a journey, where stories are told not just in words, but in colors, textures, and brushstrokes.

This debut exhibition stands as a symbol of new beginnings, bringing together diverse artistic voices that reflect our shared humanity and the beauty of the world around us. It is not just an opening—it is a blossoming.

As we unveil these works, we also open the doors to endless possibilities, dialogue, and inspiration. Thank you for being part of this milestone moment. May this be the first of many memories created together through art.
