The NALA Project
Eine Reise durch Afrika zur Stimme der Seele
Entdecke deine Visionen, Lebe deine Träume, …lass sie wahr werden. Das, was du dir wünschst zu tun, tu es und frage nicht ob es sinnvoll oder zeitgemäß ist, ob andere es mögen oder lächerlich finden.
Wenn du denkst, dass es gut für dich ist, dann mache es und du brauchst dich niemals über eine verpasste Chance ärgern.
Folge einfach deiner inneren Stimme...
The NALA Project:
Gemeinsam werden mit Künstlern aus ganz Afrika NALA Kunstwerke erschaffen, die dann in einer Ausstellung in Europa (vorzugsweise London) und anderen Städten in Europa und Afrika gezeigt werden.
Die Kunstwerke sollen die Reisegeschichte der kleinen NALA erzählen, welche den Traum hat hinter die Berge zu reisen.
Sie ist momentan in Nairobi / Kenya nach 14.300 geradelten Kilometern.
NALA wurde während des Songs „Sally“ von Sade zum Leben erweckt.
Die Künstler die am NALA Projekt teilnehmen, haben die Möglichkeit auch andere ihrer eigenen Kunstwerke auf dieser Webseite auszustellen um Ihren Bekanntheitsgrad zu erhöhen.
Also Leute, wenn ihr wollt und Lust habt, diese Tour zu unterstützen, sei es in Form von Nachrichten, Anregungen, Gedanken, Empfehlungen und Hilfeleistungen oder euch die Neugierde gepackt hat, dann seit ihr hier herzlich willkommen.
Guggt einfach immermal rein..
Bis dann
André und NALA

Now she even has more clothes than me, and today I present you exclusively, NALA's new dress from Cuba.
The artist Yailin Morales from Nuevo Paz, CUBA sewed the new dress for NALA with a lot of love, devotion and arrangement.

NALA and Graffity Ana by Richard Scott
Richard Scott is a very well known international British artist who lives in Cape Town. He refined my 2013 NALA painting with his Grafitty Ana.
I visited Richard in his studio in Cape Town in 2019.
He was immediately enthusiastic about my NALA Project and enhanced my little NALA painting with his art.
This NALA painting is now hanging from
22. October 2020 - 10. January 2021 in the
Zeitz Mocaa Art Museum in Cape Town in a special exhibition. "Home is where Art is"
A Big "Thank you" goes to Andrea Schachler. She helped me so much, that this Painting found the way to the Art Exhibition at Zeitz Mocaa. Thank you, Andrea.
Hello friends of NALA.
please see Article here: Nala helps
You will surely remember the NALA Corona Art artworks by Joan Otieno from Nairobi, Kenya.
With the help of my NALA Project, the Kenyan Artist Joan Otieno sold small NALA artworks for over 400 euros. (40,000 ksh)
Many thanks to the buyers from Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland.
Each sale ensured that everyone had enough rice and beans or corn porridge and vegetables to eat, and the Warembo Wassani Art Center continued to help underprivileged children improve their future.
Unfortunately, these small NALA artworks are still in Kenya and could not yet be sent to Germany due to Corona and high-cost transport costs.
DHL asked for an amount of 300 Euros for 6 kg of recycling art.
If you are flying from Kenya to Germany or Switzerland in the near future, please let me know.
Maybe you can bring the NALA Art package with you.
Thank you for reading.
