KUNA MENDE KWENYE MASHINE (There’s a Bug in the Machine) is the third exhibition in the Art Exchange: Moving Image series. Curated by Jesse Gerard Mpango, a founding member of Ajabu Ajabu—a multimedia curatorial collective based in Dar es Salaam—the exhibition invites visitors to reconsider the rhythms of creation and circulation, offering exploration of an alternative history and genealogy of moving image. It seeks to evoke new perspectives on the diverse narratives and histories surrounding the medium, encouraging a speculative engagement with its evolving role and resonance. 

In September 2023, Belinda Kazeem-Kamiński (b. 1980, Vienna) arrived in Lagos to begin her research-focused residency at Yinka Shonibare’s Guest Artist Space (G.A.S.) Foundation after being awarded the inaugural Access ART X Prize in the category Nigeria/Diaspora. This residency marked a significant moment in her artistic practice, as Lagos's vibrant, kinetic energy brought Belinda Kazeem-Kamiński closer to the traditions of Yoruba cosmology and language as well as West African studio photography.

On Thursday, November 7th, G.A.S. Lagos hosted My Journey in Art, an artist talk and interactive drawing workshop led by hen-resident and ART X Diaspora Prize winner Shabu Mwangi. While the word "journey" often evokes thoughts of physical movement, for Shabu, it represents personal growth, transformative experiences, and impactful change. Throughout the evening, Shabu offered a glimpse into his artistic evolution, sharing the inspiration behind his recent work, the phases of his creative process, and his unwavering commitment to using ​​​art as a medium for social change.
