b. Udeze Chidi Ukwuoma, Los Angeles, California

Chidi Ukwuoma is an interdisciplinary artist born and raised in Los Angeles. Working across ceramics, painting, photography, print-based processes, sculptural materials, and sound, his practice examines memory as both a personal and collective structure. His work considers how images, objects, symbols, and cultural forms carry history, transmit meaning, and shift across time.

Ukwuoma is particularly interested in the relationship between the individual and society, drawing from mythology, ritual, music, material culture, and inherited visual languages. Moving between representation and abstraction, he recontextualizes familiar forms to produce new narratives. Across mediums, his work often treats the object as a vessel, a site where memory, material, and cultural experience are held, transformed, and reimagined.

In addition to his visual practice, Ukwuoma works with sound and vinyl records, extending his interest in memory, repetition, and transmission into audio-based forms.
