Chukwuma's works are characterized by highly texturised and meticulously crafted wood panels incorporating techniques such as burning, chiselling, and painting. Chukwuma assembles these panels into weathered and storied artifacts, interwoven with personal and political significance.  He keenly advocates for the environment and is deeply involved with lifting his community. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing texts by Chibundu Onuzo and Dr Ikenga Chuu Krydz Ikwuemesi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished by Almas Art Foundation, 192 pages, 27 x 22 cm, Hardcover, 2023,       \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e ISBN 978-1-7394063-3-\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Almas Art Foundation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55284438532481,"sku":"02-Gchukwuma","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/8904\/7681\/files\/AAF_GC_Top.png?v=1769775625","url":"https:\/\/almas-art-foundation.myshopify.com\/products\/gerald-chukwuma-together-together","provider":"Almas Art Foundation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
