As a migrant in a new environment, there is often a deep sense of isolation and longing for connection. However, amidst the challenges and loneliness, there is also the potential to form an unexpected bond with someone who shares a similar journey. This newfound connection can provide solace, understanding, and companionship in navigating the complexities of adapting to a foreign land.

ARTIST BIO

Maureen Uzoh (b. 1997) is a figurative visual artist from Nigeria. She has a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Delta State University, Nigeria and a master’s degree in International Relations from the University of Portsmouth, UK.

Uzoh’s passion for art started at a young age, and has always pushed her to learn and grow as an artist. She did not have the opportunity to get a formal education in art, so she began practicing, watching videos online, and sourcing for informal materials. With many influences like Toyin Ojih Odutola, Lisa Brice, and Kehinde Wiley, she has built a career as an artist, and created works that boldly express her thoughts and realities.

Maureen is a part of the Title Deeds collective nurtured by Ken Nwadiogbu and curated by Azu Nwagbogu. She’s exhibited in a number of galleries including African Artist Foundation (‘Re-Mediation’, Lagos, Nigeria) and Nimbus gallery (‘iDesign Art’, Lagos, Nigeria). Her latest series, ‘The Red Room’, is a representation of her experiences while living and creating art in London.
