Nabulime Lilian was born in Kampala and studied art at the Margaret Trowell School of Industrial and Fine Art, Makerere University graduating with a Master’s degrees in sculpture and later a Ph.D. from Newcastle University UK on the research subject: the role of sculptural forms as a communication tool in relation to the lives and experiences of women with HIV/ AIDS in Uganda.
The academic lecturer’s work is a study and response to her community with personal experiences; whether good or bad. As such, her hardwood sculptures suggest a narrative on the day to day lifestyle and behaviour of young women on university campus, her individual undertakings, but also a reaction to the subject of recycling or reusing. The sculptures often produced, particularly retain their natural form as a symbol of man’s relation with nature.
