“Art Salon.” A solo exhibition by Chijioke Anyacho @ Wunika Mukan Gallery, Lagos

Event Details by @wunikamukangallery.

“Wunika Mukan Gallery is pleased to present a compelling new body of work by Nigerian artist Chijioke Anyacho (@chijiokeanyacho). Through his evocative oil paintings of deconstructed moments in time, Anyacho offers a profound reflection on everyday life, exploring the vulnerability of loss and sacrifice, and the burden of an unforgiving reality.

For Anyacho, painting is a process to understanding, of making sense of his experiences while simultaneously creating something new. Through his own lens, he explores the complexities of relationships and their different aspects within the family dynamic— navigating between displacement, vulnerability, and acceptance. Reflecting deeply on personal and shared histories of growing up without the male parent, his work traverses a realm of unspoken thoughts and feelings that oscillate between unrequited longing and reciprocal connection. This exploration births Anyacho’s artistic pursuit, where he explores a spectrum of these emotions—fear, conflict, submission, and love—melding societal expectation and the authentic self.”
