Andrea Stultien's Archive is presented in this exhibition.

Dutch artist Andrea Stultiens met Kaddu Wasswa in 2008 after an introduction by his grandson, the photographer Arthur C. Kisitu. Stultiens found in the way Kaddu Wasswa had personally documented his life a fascinating route into the Ugandan history she had been searching for. The three set out on a mission to tell Kaddu Wasswa’s life in photographs, based on the documentation he had compiled over the decades. The result is a fascinating insight into both an extraordinary man's life and post-independence Ugandan society.
