Onyedika Chuke
Visual Arts Residency
Nigerian-born, New York-based artist Onyedika Chuke is internationally recognized for his disquieting collection of objects, The Forever Museum Archive (2011-present). His politically charged sculptures of machine weaponry act as symbolic reminders of the technologically mediated wars that shape our collective memory of conflict. Chuke studied at The Cooper Union and is a participant of The Drawing Center’s Open Sessions Fellowship 2016-2018, SculptureCenter’s In Practice Fellowship 2016 and Socrates Sculpture Park’s Emerging Artist Fellowship 2016-2017.
