Uche Yewande Popoola

Self-taught textiles artist

  • 🇳🇬 Kano, Kano, Nigeria
  • Old Kano Pottery
  • 1993 to 2017
  • English
I work mostly in textiles, sometimes mural painting. My first show was in 1993 at Old Kano Pottery, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog. Most of my work is inspired by the sea. I bake for the whole street at New Year. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.
What gifts mean to Uche: I'd put a gift toward a kiln repair. It's been a long time coming.
