Trinidadian Multimedia Artist Tim Greene of POPARTERIA, Inc.





Tim Greene is a Trinidadian multimedia artist whose company, Poparteria, Inc. allows him to experiment with abstract art and delve further into what he believes in.
He says, "I enjoy abstract art in all forms; experimenting with textures, designing...doing just about anything creative. I excel in mixed media combining photography, painting and embedding 3D objects into collages. I’m self-taught and I began doing this at a very early age and now I see my purpose in this puzzle called Life".  
Greene continues, "Poparteria, Inc. was created because art has always been my passion and I'd rather do a job that I love than a job that I hate but get paid. Art is the freedom of expressions manifested visually and I’m expressing my talent".

Martin Kharumwa is a Ugandan photographer working mostly in East Africa. In 2008, he won the Sony World Photography Award for his image entitled Itch and from there he decided to work towards becoming a professional photographer.

He assisted photographers in London, had some of his gig photography published, before deciding to move back to Uganda to develop his craft and portfolio.

His clients include the Uganda German Culture Center (Goethe), shooting designer Gloria Wavamunno's collections and the Nike Foundation in Rwanda.

He hopes to eventually influence the culture of photography in Uganda, and to inspire more local appreciation and support for photography.
