Details of the Phd Study
Thesis: The Role of Sculptural Forms as a Communication Tool in Relation to the Lives and Experiences of Women with HIV/AIDS in Uganda
This resulted in a large body of artworks produced at various stages of the research in response to the information received from interviewees. Some of these were exhibited in Britain during the project; the final soap sculptures were successfully tested for use in HIV/AIDS awareness projects in Uganda. Transparent soap sculptures were developed to provoke debates on HIV/AIDS issues.
Soap Sculptures Publicity
- Newspapers: The ‘Launch of the Soap Sculpture show at Katikamu – Luwero District’, The New Vision, 22 March 2005 and ‘Lilian out to sculpt’. The Monitor, 6 April 2005
2005 – Radio programme interviews
- BBC Network Africa, an interview with Will Ross, HIV/AIDS Conference at Munyonyo, broadcast 23March.
- The BBC World Service in London for the ‘Focus on Africa’ programme. An interview with Lara Powson on ‘Soap Genitalia’, broadcast 1 May.
The Male and Female Soap Sculptures Patent/Registration
UK Intellectual Property (2007); Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (Trade Marks and Designs) EU (2007); The Registrar of Trade Marks Uganda Class 05 under No. 27571 (2005).
A proposal for the production of soap sculptures is being developed so that women living with HIV/AIDs can produce them to earn a living. During the research the women stated that many of them are exposed to HIV/AIDS, namely through engaging in abusive relationships due to poverty or early marriages.
The research concluded that empowering women economically and engaging men as well in HIV/AIDS interventions will reduce infections among women.
Research Contribution to Universities and Communities
My research led me to contribute to the community by:
- Encouraging HIV/AIDS groups in Newcastle to promote HIV/AIDS awareness through the use of art competitions in schools, among the youth and artists.
- During my PhD study in the UK and subsequently (2001 – present) I have held exhibitions, workshops, and lectures/talks on HIV/AIDS awareness, with reference to my research, using slides/Power Point focusing on sculpture not only in the UK but also in other countries, namely Norway, Denmark and Uganda.
- The PhD research has communicated HIV/AIDS issues through a journal paper, newspapers and websites, both on local and international radios, as noted above. (For more information, please refer to the section of the CV on international exhibitions, public talks and lectures.

2009 | Workshop: The Switch on People in Enterprise workshop organised by Durham University was useful in acquiring skills and knowledge focusing on my research project of mass production of soap sculptures as a business enterprise to employ Ugandan women living with HIV/AIDS in both their production, use in education and women’s personal development. As a lecturer in Uganda, through this workshop I was able to gain more insight into defining our courses that have an aspect of innovation and entrepreneurship for the students to acquire skills to be more employable, self-employed or job creators | |
