Artist
Greg Onyeka
1976Greg Onyeka is a Nigerian painter known for his vibrant, semi-abstract compositions, geometric patterns, and distinctive portrayal of human faces. A 2007 Fine Art graduate of the University of Lagos, he combines elements of Cubism with figurative painting to create visually engaging works characterised by layered forms and expressive colours.
Popularly known as the “Master of Camouflage,” Onyeka explores the interplay between concealment and revelation, allowing faces and figures to emerge from intricate arrangements of shapes and colours. Beyond portraiture, his artistic practice extends to landscapes, urbanisation, and cultural themes, reflecting diverse aspects of human experience. His distinctive visual language and broad thematic interests have contributed to the appeal of his works among diverse audiences.
He has participated in several exhibitions.
