Two men talk next to a stone sculpture carved by Kenyan sculptor Elkana Ong’esa in the streets of Kisii on November 30, 2023. – As Kenya’s most lauded sculptor, 79-year-old Elkana Ong’esa has seen his gigantic stone sculptures displayed all over the world -from the UNESCO headquarters in Paris to the United Nations in New York-, but believes that African art still hasn’t won the recognition it deserves, either overseas or at home.
