Read and write reviews about Brian Kivuti (t/a Treasure Makers). “I’m obsessed with the internal world, perception, and my search for flow” Above is the succinct answer you will rarely (or never) get from the artist, Brian Kivuti, a self-described Treasure Maker (multi-disciplinary artist). Following the bloom of ideas that nearly always find their source in the above themes, his work and excitement are symbolic exercises of his own search for personal alignment. Within his art jewellery, the juxtaposition of fluid & crude forms is frequently used to subtly convey the internal experience of transition, especially the attempts of growth through the contrasting experience of self-reflection. Often, where polished form and gnarled surfaces meet, a ‘bloom’ is often represented; "this is where growth is found", is his reminder. So too, his multi-media paintings depict, in ink images of torrid waves, or in installation art, as his first solo exhibit "Golden State of Mind" (2012), where the exhibit space lined with grass hoped to lightly convey the internal space. Trained in Jewellery & Silvermithing (BA, 2012) within Edinburgh University, Brian Kivuti continues his practice at his private atelier in Nairobi, Kenya. He loves the exploration of making, especially in playing around with textures on simple forms.
