Emeka Udemba
"Dreamer No. 8" Original Emeka Udemba Mixed Media Turquoise Figurative Painting

2020

About the Item

Centering his mixed-media artworks within his identity as a person of color who lives in an evolving “global environment”, Emeka Udemba creates figurative artworks which offer space for speculations, free-flow of ideas, discoveries, and transformation. This unique figurative painting is 48 inches high by 43 inches wide. The sides are painted green and it does not require framing. It is wired and ready to hang. This painting is signed by the artist on the front and titled on the back. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and global shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Udemba’s artworks revolve around issues of “otherness”. He creates images weaving together materials and fragments that invite us to question and reimagine new landscapes of memory, history, the present, and the future. These artworks speak beyond the geographies of hierarchy, power, conquest, and dominance. They allude to landscapes where we can all celebrate humanity and our differences. Ultimately, Udemba’s work is bout visibility, empowerment, and solidarity.
