Onuzulike explores the aesthetic, symbolic and metaphoric nature of clay. His recent work, currently on view at HVMOCA and at Marc Straus LLC in Manhattan, is inspired by such natural resources as yam tubers, palm kernel shells and honeycombs that he produces in ceramic in mass amounts and weaves together laboriously into Afro Centric tapestries referencing the slave trade and the imbalance in political relations between Africa and the West. A deeply religious person, his poetry sings to the ethereal in us all.
