Description
This story depicts the deep bond between a giraffe and a hippopotamus named Boko, despite facing a significant challenge. The giraffe spends its life on dry land and rarely ventures to the river where its friend Boko lives. Boko, the hippo, thrives in the water and seldom ventures onto dry land to visit the giraffe. The picture portrays their strong friendship despite the difficulties each faces. --- # [Athumani Maulana] Athumani Maulana was born in 1983 in the Nakapanya Village of Ruvuma, Tanzania, where he first discovered his passion for Tingatinga art under the guidance of his uncle- a renowned artist. Growing up immersed in the rich cultural heritage of East Africa, Maulana eventually received formal training for his artistic skills in Dar es Salaam, where he mastered the traditional techniques of depicting animals, birds, and cartoons with intricate detail. Since 2001, Maulana has showcased his works in numerous exhibitions, including notable events such as the Tingatinga Cartoon exhibition in Kenya from 2007 to 2008, which gained popularity among children and received international television coverage. He has also participated in prestigious shows such as "Voices of Wisdom" in Zanzibar from 2010 to 2012 and exhibitions at the National Museum in Dar es Salaam from 2009 to 2013.
