The cultural day is a day of an oeuvre of cultural displays. It is a remarkable day for the society, beaming in colorful native attires that showcase and demonstrate cultures from the various tribes in Nigeria. As an artist in an abstract form, this represents a cultural set up of the different tribes in Nigeria with their colorful attires. Chinedu Ogakwu is a southeastern Nigerian visual artist from a creative family of six. He studied Painting at the prestigious Enugu Art School Institute of Management and Technology where he obtained an HND in Art (Painting). He is presently a full-time studio artist whose work explores the dynamics of both his cultural heritage and his life as an African/international artist. He is known for his peculiar raised texture and mixed media rendition. His work often engages impulsive combinations of forms, color, scale, and perspective, calling into question how the viewer processes visual information.
