Studio Visit with Ifeoma Nwachukwu

Visit the Bed-Stuy studio of Nigerian-American painter Ifeoma Nwachukwu, whose large, vibrant canvases blend portraiture with patterns drawn from Igbo textiles and uli body art. Her figures, often family members and friends, sit in bold, flattened spaces of colour that explore memory, home and belonging across two cultures. See finished paintings and works in progress, and hear about her process. Small group, casual conversation.

Instructions

Take the freight elevator to the 5th floor. Studio 5B is at the end of the hallway. Smocks available on the hooks by the door.
