These are the stairs that lead to the Nyamirambo stadium. One cannot believe they are simple coloured stairs looking at it from far away. <\/p>\n

\u201cIn partnership with Kurema, Kureba, Kwiga project, Kigali Hope Association and Ivuka Arts Kigali, we came up with the mural paintings in different parts of the country, but our intention is to work with the community, so that the community feels our artistic works.\u201d Uwase Crista, a 25 year old. <\/p>\n

Crista Uwase is a petite, dark-skin young lady, with a smiling face. She enlightened the dream she has had from an early age of becoming a known artist, and being able to express her feelings through visual art.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs for now I am confident that I am realizing my dream. Art is not just the way you see it, but it is my way to express my feelings and likes.\u201d Crista stated. <\/p>\n

Additionally, art is enhancing her worldwide visibility. She participated in an exhibition on the international women\u2019s day in Kinshasa. <\/p>\n

\u201cThanks to my arts, one of my works has gone far to inspire women for them to be empowered and economically reliant. Thus I am very optimistic about it\u201d <\/p>\n

When the Ni Nyampinga team met with her, she explained how she feels about being a visual artist, but also being part of a team that delivered such exceptional and superb work at the Nyamirambo stadium. <\/p>\n

\u201cI feel proud and confident due to the fact that this is my passion, I am fond of visual art and when I realize people are inspired by my work, that is excellent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Crista started this career some years ago and more recently joined Ivuka Arts Kigali.
\nNow together with her team, they created a very inspirational and fine-looking work that appears over the Nyamirambo stadium stairs and wall. <\/p>\n

Mushumba Olivier, a resident of Nyamirambo said: \u201cI like this painting so much. You see a big change at this place, since it has been put. It is more visually attractive.\u201d <\/p>\n
