By a Correspondent

Bonding strings-by Uchay Chima

Uchay Graduated in 1997 from the Art School of the Institute of Management and Technology, Enugu, and has exhibited his work in Nigeria, South Africa and Canada. He unveils paintings and thought provoking installations that dissect the anatomy of realities around us whilst employing conventional and unconventional approaches in his restless exploration.

“I enjoy spending quiet moments observing nature and my environment, exploring shapes, colours and designs; my interpretation of objects and subjects that are delightful to the eyes, I transfer to boards and canvases poetically”.

Uchay will be showing his most recent work of Paintings, Videos and Installations at Pan-African University, Lekki Express Road, Ajah, Lagos, Nigeria on Saturday, May 28 at 2:00pm - June 10 at 6:00pm.
