Makama John is a contemporary Artist who works from his home studio in Abuja, Nigeria. He has a Bsc. In Accounting, but decided to focus on art in 2019. His art focuses on the connections that exist between us as humans, and between us and our natural, built and perceived environments. His use of the green colour represents positivity, growth and the power of experience and his use of dots represents the multitude of our interactions and connections. He works mostly with Charcoal, Acrylic and Oils on canvas and Paper, although his process is highly research and experience intensive; and it continues to evolve as his practice expands.
