Meet The Artist: Usukuma Essien

My Culture, My People : Black History Month Event at ASCEND Charity UK

Usukuma Essien, known on the art scene as Suksi, is a Nigerian artist with a flair for bold, abstract colour that is translated into urban as well as traditional art. Suksi is a self taught artist who expresses his passion onto canvas, murals , clothing and accessories. He also has an interest in upcycling and is currently working on turning a dismantled bicycle into a wall hanging. I can’t wait to see the result.

Suksi will share his journey into modern art and showcase his artwork while co facilitating an art workshop at an event organised by #ascendcharityuk

He will be using one of his pieces as a theme for the creative session on 28th October, 2020, from 10.30am to 12.30pm.

When asked about his influences, Suksi says ” “My art is defined mostly by colours which I generously use to recreate my thoughts on any medium for the world to see”.
