Nsukka Group

ンスッカ・グループ / 1970s– / Style / Mouvements d’art moderne et contemporain

Around the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Uche Okeke and later artists extended the flowing lines of uli body and wall drawing and signs including nsibidi into contemporary work on paper, print, textile and sculpture. Fine line and open ground carry narrative and abstraction together.

Long flowing black lines with changing weight / Large negative shapes and open ground enclosed by line / People, animals and plants compressed into signs / Uli and nsibidi references crossing paper, textile, print and sculpture

Entrée du dictionnaire

Usages idéaux
Turning land, body and story into contemporary signs through line and open ground · Developing a regional drawing practice across media rather than closing it into one surface pattern
Typographie
Verify Igbo terms and the uses of uli and nsibidi; do not invent a sign string to simulate meaning.
Composition
Make only a few flowing lines primary and preserve their enclosed negative forms at equal strength. Simplify figures along the line's direction.
Matière
Preserve the line quality of ink, pen, dye and print matrix instead of converting it into a uniform stock pattern. Credit community and maker.
Précaution
Repeating uli as an African pattern is not the Nsukka lineage. Show its relation to women's body and wall drawing, its university reinterpretation and differences among artists.
