Artist Solomon Muyundo, also known as Solo 7, lives in Kibera, which is part of the Kenyan capital Nairobi. Kibera happens to be Africa’s largest slum. In early 2008, Muyundo, like many in Kenya, took to the streets during Kenya’s post-election violence. In protest of the widespread looting and killings, he painted slogans of peace in almost every corner of Kibera.
