Chukwuemeka Anthony Chukwu Nigerian, b. 1998

Chukwuemeka Anthony Chukwu (b. 1998, Lagos, Nigeria), produces abstract compositions that merge loose mark-making with geometric structure, combining acrylics, gels, and tape on textured surfaces. Influenced by architecture, science, technology, and digital media, gaming played a significant role in shaping his aesthetic. This is reflected in the flat graphic forms, modular structures, and rhythmic codes that echo three-dimensional digital landscapes. His compositions shift between controlled color fields and spontaneous marks, with floating rectangles, scattered symbols, and etched patterns evoking movement, fragmentation, and camouflage. Blending intuitive experimentation with an architectural sensibility, his work allows for storytelling of mini experiences. Chukwu opens a reflective space for issues of inclusion, including discussions surrounding race, housing development, space utilization, online presence, media consumption and how they intersect with his reality.
