'SANE is not carried away by the pedantic way that the visible or
visual histories of Buganda are depicted as sacrosanct. He is inspired
in this body of works by Andrea Stultiens’ studies on the impact and
place of photographs on the Ugandan psyche.
When Andrea asked SANE to make a visual response to a photographic image depicting a seated potentate Mukaabya Muteesa I, she helped to focus SANE on revealing the nakedness of the character Muteesa I, not as the powerful god king of Buganda, but as an image of somebody who was once in the position to shape the future of not only the Buganda kingdom, but also of Bunyoro, Toro, Ankole and others.'
