Chemba Uche’s work has been selected for inclusion in the an online exhibition "Ancient Influence"
The works that will feature in the exhibition are:
- “Jubilation"
- "Sole Mask"
”The concept of the ancient forms incarnating in art is the focus for this exhibition. We received many different interpretations of this, but the thread that binds the pieces selected is a certain honor that artists feel for the past. This honor results in the depiction of beauty and takes on a mystifying glow which resonates throughout the work. The work we chose is fascinating. It amazes us how the ancient world is reflected, yet is integrated into the present, with contemporary ideology and concerns. We are very pleased to be able to present this exhibition! The dates for the on-line posting of the exhibition will be January 5 - February 4, 2006. After that, the exhibition will be available for viewing as an archive for a number of months.” says Marjorie Kaye, the Director of Caladan Gallery, which organized the online exhibition.
