Gerald Chukwuma

Nigerian 1973- 

Gerald Chukwuma, born in 1973, is a Nigerian artist known for his detailed wood-slate sculptures that blend burning, chiselling, and painting. His work draws on Uli and Nsibidi symbols, connecting to the Nsukka art tradition while addressing environmental and political issues. Chukwuma explores migration as a transformative process, using everyday materials to comment on Nigeria's socio-political landscape. His art, often featuring playful characters and urban imagery, reflects the impact of globalization and conflict, with some works incorporating sim cards as symbols of modern society.
