摘　　要：A Chinese photographer and artist creates a special ceramic artwork to pay tribute to a classical musician from Kenya A community wall in Kahawa West on the outskirts of Nairobi,Kenya,is decorated with the image of Ayub Ogada.This gigantic mural measuring 3.6 metres wide and 2.4 metres high is made with 54 large ceramic tiles and is hard to miss for passers-by,who inevitably wonder who this man is.Regarded as one of the greatest Kenyan artists of all time,Ogada passed away over four years ago at the age of 63.In his heyday,he was considered a contemporary virtuoso of the nyatiti,an ancient Kenyan lyre,an excellent djembe player and a leading singer-songwriter.While famous in the Western world,his name is hardly known to Kenyan youth.
