Who Are OMI KAMU DUNIYA?

‘Omi Kamu Duniya’, formed in August 2014, is a collective of young passionate and well-cultured artists who come from wide and varied ethnic backgrounds and cultures; bringing a fresh and vibrant energy to the art scene.

As a multi-disciplinary collective OKD work with various mediums such as sculpture, painting, illustration, fine art, photography, dance, music and poetry.

So far, the collective has put on a number of exhibitions around London and is currently running workshops at Covent Garden’s private members club, LIBRARY. The collective is looking to extend its outreach and work with more charitable organisations in order to facilitate therapeutic, safe and engaging spaces for members of the public to creatively explore and express themselves.
