Brian Musasia, famously known as Msale prides himself in his signature abstract Afro patterns that are now easily distinct in wall murals done by BSQ Crew, a street art group based in Kenya’s Capital, Nairobi.

During this Covid-19 crisis, Msale is using his art to spread awareness about the pandemic in one of Kenya's informal settlements, Mathare.
