Fishing
David Basasira of Uganda

When I visited Julio Lukwago's father at their fishing site, I saw energetic men using a lot of strength to pull nets full of fish out of the water. I became interested in the techniques used and even the locally made boats were an interesting feature to me. The Nile perch fish species which is very big inspired me to produce this artwork.
