Current Work
War against Plastics - using art and crafts as a means of reducing the amount of plastics that litter the environment. Aside from the adverse environmental impact of these plastics, the way they are thrown around creates a chaotic and unpleasant ambience in the city of Nsukka and even beyond so I am using both arts and oral word to challenge people to dispose of these things properly. In April I had a collaborative celebration of the World Earth day with the local council here to raise awareness about the environmental hazards these things create. |
