ABOUT EMMANUEL NWOGBO
Emmanuel Nwogbo is a Nigerian-Canadian visual artist. Emmanuel grew up in Lagos, the largest city in Africa. The rich culture and heritage combined with the vibrant energy of one of the world’s cultural epicentres exposed him to the arts at an early age through colourful afrobeat musicians such as Fela Kuti, Lagbaja, and more. This fascination for pop culture led him to pursue Visual Art and Visual Communication Design, and then a master’s degree in Interdisciplinary Design at NSCAD University. After emigrating to Canada, Emmanuel discovered his love for storytelling through digital collages and photo manipulation. His digital riffs are informed by his interest in 20th Century art movements such as Pop art, Surrealism, and Dada. These styles reverberate through Nigerian culture and have inspired Emmanuel to continually explore and experiment with the interconnectedness between art, culture, and materiality. In 2018, his exceptional creative and technical skills were showcased through his project, 365 Days of James Bond Characters. This series of daily digital posters earned Emmanuel The Coast’s Best of Halifax Reader’s Choice Award for Best Visual Artist in 2019. As an ambassador for the Nigerian diaspora, Emmanuel’s recent works seek to shed light on all aspects of Nigerian culture in a world where preconceived biases and stereotypes about Nigeria are commonplace. He has illustrated the richness and diversity of Nigeria in his current Suya Man Series. You can follow Emmanuel’s latest visual storytelling on Instagram and his website.
