In 2007, when Start Magazine covered the story of Mona Studio, there was an air of great expectations for the cause of young artists working together. It was a case of two charismatic artists slowly but surely etching their way into an indifferent community in Kamwokya, a suburb of Kampala city.

And they almost pulled it off, but for the ignorance of one major factor at play in any alliance; the divergence of vested interests.
