Ongata Line Sacco
Dexxy
$50.00
Dexxy — an Ongata Line Sacco matatu that rode the wave of Nairobi's dance music scene. The name, a play on 'decks' (as in turntables or DJ decks), signalled that this matatu was built for sound — bigger speakers, deeper bass, and a livery that matched the club energy. Dennis Muraguri's 2022 woodcut captures the sleek typography and rhythmic composition. Matatu sound systems are legendary in Nairobi, with some vehicles carrying speaker arrays that rival nightclubs. The Dexxy design paid homage to that sonic culture, turning the vehicle into a mobile party. Muraguri's woodcut isolates the visual identity of that party-on-wheels, preserving it as a standalone artwork. This reproduction print suits music lovers, DJs, and anyone who has experienced the unique sensation of a matatu bassline vibrating through Nairobi traffic. The woodcut's crisp lines cut through visual noise just as a good beat cuts through a crowd.
