"Standing Ovation" Nigerian artist Gerald Chukwuma's new body of works. Chukwuma’s bold works using a multitude of found objects have an unforgettable visual language, in which he uses African symbols and patterns in refreshing new ways; he uses a combination of textures, lines, symbols and colours laid out on painstakingly etched wooden panels. His upcoming exhibition "Standing Ovation" opens at @gallery1957 on April 21, 2016. 📷: Nana Osei - 2016 #lagos #Accra #Nigeria #Ghana #Africa #art #artist #contemporaryart #symbols #patterns #textures #wood #sculptures #studio #gallery1957 #geraldchukwuma #standingovation #streetstyle #streetphotography #artphotography #artnewsafrica #everydayafrica (at Akoka Yaba)
