Ufuoma Jigbada is a Nigerian multimedia artist who creates evocative, tactile works by repurposing discarded fabrics into intricate compositions. A graduate of Auchi Polytechnic, Jigbada’s practice is rooted in her childhood hobby of crafting dolls from tailor scraps, a passion that eventually evolved from traditional painting into a meticulous technique of stitching fabric onto canvas. Her art explores profound themes of resilience, hope, and family values, challenging societal norms by transforming overlooked materials into vibrant symbols of beauty.
