Nigeria: Thought Pyramid Unleashes Duo Show 'Transcendence'

9 April 2021

On the heels of steady progression on the Lagos and international art scenes, two artists, Ikechukwu Ezeigwe and Christian Allison are heading towards canvas mastery. They are having a joint art exhibition titled, Transcendence from April 11 to 26 at Thought Pyramid Art Centre, Ikoyi, Lagos. The gallery had previously showcased their works in a juried group exhibition targeted at young talented artists tagged 'Next of Kin.' Ikechukwu and Allison had won at the 2019 and 2020 editions respectively and thus, this new show is a way of consolidating their artistic supremacy.

On the one hand, the 32-year old Ezeigwe had one of his works, 'Enemy of the State' sold by the renowned Bonhams Private Auction house in the UK. His works are characterized by human figures with animal heads to highlight themes of politics, love, affection, amongst others. He effectively uses his unique painting style to advocate for good and credible governance in his country.
