The raw energy in Tusiime’s paintings – compelling and revealing.
By George Kyeyune
Writing about Tusiime the artist is one of the most challenging things I have ever done. Tusiime is a combination of defiance and compliance- one can say in a sea of ambivalences, he has blossomed as one of Uganda’s best-known painters. He arrived at Makerere in 1999 to fill a post of a cleaner. His job was to clean and organize the studios and as he carried out these tasks, he was, at personal level, organizing and nurturing his artistic ambition. He interacted with art students and professors, observed, appreciated and respected their thoughts and processes but audaciously chose his own path and with compulsion pursued it. An experimental and naïve painter is now his badge of identity proudly displayed on his sleeves. Local and international collectors have acquired his work, art colleges in America and elsewhere have invited him to share his unique and individual experience and skills.
