SUBMISSION FOR VXART TOURNAMENT TITLE: New Lands NAME: Salim Busuru NATIONALITY: Kenyan LOCATION: Nairobi Inspired by the migration of the tribal groups all over Africa (the Bantu, cushites, Nilotes and others). I wondered what kind of strength it took to leave what you know and move to an unknown place and start a new life. But our ancestors did it, now we do it again in this new era. #VXARTTOURNAMENT2021 #CCAONLINE @Comicconafrica_official @vexpoafrica https://www.instagram.com/p/CU3vlP4ocRP/?utm_medium=tumblr

🔥FINALLY!!!!🔥 I managed to get a copy of the classic AKOKHAN by the late Frank Odoi. One of the comics that inspired me to go the African art route. Truly this book is more than a comic story. 🔥🔥🔥🔥 #akokhan #wheregrasshasgrown https://www.instagram.com/p/CRGhFCYLgTN/?utm_medium=tumblr
