It all started from the cartoons he watched at a very young age, he grew interest in the outlining of these characters being visualised with pencil and over the years he advance into the ballpoint pen portraiture drawing. In the University (UNIBEN) he grew more interest for painting and with the guild of a master in painting (El Dragg Leonard Okwoju) he understood the art. Painting at the Finest studios in Benin (NOSONA) under Mr. Paul Enotie Ogbebor also gave him an edge to participate in a group exhibition ([Re:]Entanglement) supervised by Prof. Paul Basu (SOAS university of London) which consist of 15 young artist as a result of the collaborative effort of the University of Cambridge and Nosona studios.The subconscious mind is timeless it connects the past and future hence working in surrealism and afrofuturism has made him been able to fully interpret how situations affect him. His work engages the social, political, religious and cultural narratives of his immediate environment.
My name is Ugherughe Kenneth oghenemaro and I love art.
