Aphorism Goes Beyond Aesthetics......Rebecca Ejifoma

Wisdom is Better than Silver and Gold
 
 
 
A solo art exhibition, featuring the recent works of Johnson Uwadinma, will open on Friday 1st November at 4 p.m. at the Mydrim Gallery, 74B Norman Williams in Ikoyi Lagos.
 
The exhibition, titled Aphorism, will display 80 paintings based on truth and morality. According to the artist, he draws his thematic strength from proverbial, political, social, economic and spiritual didactism. ‘The body of work offers visual narratives that implore a discourse on life and living,’ he explained.
 
Uwadinma's recent array of aesthetic piece explores the dynamics of destruction and the visual tessellations of hues which he combines with strong compositional organization to create complex, yet simple visual metaphors.
 
This present engagement underscores his urge to see a world transformed by the engagement of truth and morality through his works, which will be exuded at the gallery. It will run from 1st to 12th November.
