Workshop exploring Public Space in Mombasa. For two weeks in June 2008 18 artists, half international and half local, explored, reacted to and interrogated the public space of Mombasa through various means. Work produced varied from performance, to public installations, to murals, to temporary interventions, to a music video, a song and a documentary.
