Mahali Salama is a statement about self-determination and inner power. The ferry moves deliberately through open water, symbolizing resilience, direction and the courage to claim one’s own path. It does not drift; it navigates.
Graffiti lettering in the background introduces a raw, urban energy as voice, identity and lived experience layered into the work. The chains reference weight, history and constraint, yet they coexist with motion rather than stopping it.
Translated as “a safe place,” Mahali Salama reframes safety as something internal rather than given. The work invites the collector to reflect on autonomy, presence and the quiet confidence of forward movement.
Owning space, direction and momentum in a world of constant change.
