NCAI presents 'Looking into the Mad Eye of History Without Blinking', a solo exhibition by Canon Griffin Rumanzi, curated by Trevor Mukholi. Opening on 11 Sept, the exhibition confronts the turbulent & fragmented narratives of Uganda’s past & their ongoing echoes in the present.

His work challenges us to look directly, without blinking, at the contradictions of history and the unresolved complexities that shape our collective memory. Join us for this exhibition that dares us to see history as it is—chaotic, contradictory, and deeply alive.

He co-founded HIP Uganda, an archival project dedicated to digitizing & reinterpreting Uganda’s visual past. His practice, exhibited both regionally and internationally, continues to spark urgent conversations about how African histories are remembered, contested, and retold.

Opening day vibes from ‘Looking into the Mad Eye of History Without Blinking’, Canon Griffin’s ongoing exhibition at NCAI. 🎥 Watch the full video on YouTube via the link: youtu.be/p48LKPhVrvo On view until 2 Nov. Come by, explore Canon’s work, and join the conversation.

Well done, Rumanzi Canon // UrbanUnkindness // History In Progress Uganda!
