Beba Stini!
$50.00
Beba Stini! — a Portrait Format Beba series matatu. 'Stini' (eighty in Swahili) continues the numerical naming pattern, suggesting a fleet numbering system or route identifiers. The exclamation mark transforms a functional name into an energetic declaration. Dennis Muraguri's woodcut captures the vertical typography with precision. The Beba series' use of Swahili numbers is a deliberate nod to linguistic heritage, embedding Kenyan identity into the very names of the vehicles. This print documents that cultural choice with the artist's characteristic attention to letterform and composition. This portrait-format print works well in a staircase gallery, a narrow hallway, or as part of a triptych with other Beba variations. It brings a piece of Nairobi's numerical culture into your interior.
