Walter Kitundu



In expereincing Kitundu's work, an entire culture is imagined, ased on the intricate beauty of his instruments. I've been conceptualizing a graphic novel called Plaid To Platinum, and to my surpise, much of his ideas connect directly with details of the world I am striving to create. He even suggests collaboration to those so inclined. I am sending an email this weekend. Hope his work continues to inspire...

"Kitundu has an ongoing residency at the Exploratorium Museum of science, art and perception in San Francisco. He has recently been in residence at Eagle Rock School in Colorado, the Science Museum of Minnesota, and the Singapore Science Centre. Kitundu is also developing a Geologic Sound Casting project for volcanically active regions and was granted a five week artist residency at Skriduklaustur in Eastern Iceland in September 2004. He was raised in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. "
