ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Original mixed media painting without frame. My paintings are original, vividly signed and dated on the front by myself.......Nweke Uche MEDIUM: Mixed media MATERIALS: Enamel, acrylic, oil colour, sawdust, glue on canvas SIZE: 46" height x 36" width PRODUCTION DATE: 2015 RELEVANCE OF THE STYLE The process is actually initiated by the desire to create a painting that demands attention and has a dynamic appearance. With this approach, I maintain textural effects and geometric shapes as a focal point with recycled waste sawdust and glue as a binder. However, the relevance of the style is to manage sawdust from saw millers and add value to it so as to enable it contribute to environment sustainability, in view of the advocacy against global climate change, due to the way it is being burned to ashes in most timber saw mills. One may ask-How do we replace the burning of waste sawdust with recycling to painting and equally save the environment? This very question therefore, gave root to this style of my painting. Notwithstanding, this approach to painting is my own unique way of contributing to the environmental sustainability through reduction of pollution and health problems arising from sawdust combustion, through creative means of recycling the waste sawdust into painting. This will reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while enhancing the quality of life and public health of the people.

Nweke Uchechukwu was born many years ago in Awka Anambra state Nigeria. After graduating from the University of Nigeria Nsukka, He began to work full time as a studio artist. At first, he started exploring various styles in painting. But over time, he developed a keen interest in environmental sustainability with recycled sawdust and white glue as chief medium of exploration of artistic sensibility and here my creative ingenuity can be better expressed. He has been practicing professionally since the year 2011. He is also a sculptor and lives in London United Kingdom.
