Art
Kisii soapstone is a unique and beautiful metamorphic rock in the Tabaka Hills of Kisii County, Kenya. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind creation, showcasing the artistry and cultural heritage of the Kisii people.
They are meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans using traditional techniques passed down through generations. The stone is carefully mined by hand and then carved using simple tools like chisels, hammers, and knives. After carving, the pieces are sanded, polished, and sometimes dyed with natural colours.

Sourcing various collected offcuts, old swatch books and clothes, Molo Mimi lays layer upon layer of fabric to create original art pieces: each one a unique messenger. Instead of ending up in landfills, these fabrics are shredded with a rotor blade and cut into pieces that can then be assembled as inspiration strikes.
Every handmade piece is ready to be framed, stitched onto your favourite garment or tote bag, or pressed into your journal as daily reminder of wisdom.
Every purchase allows an artist to continue to their life authentically. ❤️
