The exhibition included "Power Lines, Everyday Currents from the ARAK Collection", featuring works by ElMouiz Abdelbagi Alogaimi, Trevor Aloka, Girma Berta, Arnold Birungi, Mohamed Bushra, Nelson Ijaka’a, Patrick Karanja, Ismael Kateregga, Aly Kilua, Eli Kobeli, Asanda Kupa, Elias Mung’ora, Malibongwe Shangase, Mario Pedro Soares, Gerald Tabata, and Themba Khumalo.
