Emmanuel Unaji is a Nigerian multimedia artist based in London. Combining painting, drawing, collage, and fashion design, Unaji’s style is often described as rebellious and bold. Inspired by the fashion industry, he frequently uses fragments of magazine photographs to which he adds painted, drawn, or sculpted elements. Blurring the boundaries between fine art and fashion design, he combines mixed media works with other practices to create wearable art in addition to traditional paintings and portraits. In this recent interview with Omenka, he discusses the representation of pop culture in his art and his forthcoming exhibition.
