Solo exhibition INSIDE

INSIDE offers a broad overview of paintings and sculptures by Kingsley Ogwara. Ogwara is a master of orchestrating colors and shapes. His pointillistic, rhythmic abstracts with rich textures in oil paint and acrylic, typically reflect the illusion of crowds with much to discover, sometimes barely concealed. Ogwara is fascinated by the inner man and how it relates to his environment, to the community in which he lives and from which he derives his identity. He often hides images in his layered works, always looking for patterns of human connection, harmony, shared values, feelings, inspiration or precisely those hidden vulnerabilities through which connection is created.⁠

His sculptures in wood and alabaster stone are mainly organic abstracts with clear, flowing lines, associative with a touch of realism. In his own country, Ogwara’s sculptures were recently nominated for the PRIX-GRAND-DUC-ADOLPHE during Luxembourg Art Week at the end of 2019. His paintings have previously been awarded the prestigious PRIX-PIERRE-WERNER at Luxembourg Art Week in 2016. In addition to recognition in his own country, Ogwara has built up a solid international track record by participating in many international exhibitions, art fairs and art events in Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and France and his work can be found in collections far beyond.⁠
