About the Item
Kelechi Nwaneri, born in Lagos, Nigeria, is a self-taught mixed-media artist who has quickly gained recognition in the contemporary art world. Nwaneri's artistic style is characterized by a unique blend of realism, surrealism, and postmodernism. He often incorporates indigenous symbols, such as Adinkra, Uli, and Nsibidi, along with mystical, metaphysical, and allegorical imagery to create visually striking compositions. His signature "Black Hybrid Figure" is a recurring motif that symbolizes the concept of scars and tribal marks.
In his latest solo exhibition with EBONY/CURATED, titled ‘Soliloquy’, Nwaneri explores themes of identity, introspection, and the complexities of human experience. This exhibition marks his second collaboration with the gallery and features a range of new works that delve into personal narratives and collective memories.
The pieces in 'Soliloquy' showcase Nwaneri's signature style, blending vibrant colours and intricate details with West African iconography to create compositions that each reflect his unique approach to storytelling through art. The exhibition aims to provoke thought and dialogue around the psychological aspects of existence, inviting viewers to engage with the deeper meanings behind the imagery presented.

'In The Box'
Located in Cape Town, ZA
Born and raised in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zemba Luzamba interrogates social and political power structures in Africa, transforming the everyday experiences of African migrants through his bold imagery. Bordering on satire, Luzamba subtly comments on a range of socio-political issues, appearing to mimic and question the colonial lifestyle of the post-colonial elites. A contemporary realist, his captivating paintings, produced over weeks of re-working and layering with oil, illustrate African figures engaged in various activities, from political ritual to dapper men engaged in moments of leisure. Zemba Luzamba, born 1973, currently lives and works in South Africa after having relocated to pursue his career as an artist. This experience has allowed him an intimate view of migrant communities, informing many of his works over the last 15 years. His work has been exhibited extensively in a range of solo and group shows such as 'When We See Us: A Century of Black Figuration in Painting’ at Zeitz Mocaa, and can be found in international and local collections, namely the Irma Stern...
