Dubem Aniebonam Read Bio Collapse
Dubem Aniebonam is a Nigerian-American artist and architectural designer living in New York City. Her minimalist, geometric artwork is inspired by traditional African symbolic art and writing as well as her education in fine art and architecture. Her connection to Nollywood films began in her childhood, with nostalgic memories of listening through her bedroom floor way past bedtime as her parents enjoyed loud, dramatic, and entertaining Nollywood films late into the night. She grew up watching these films with her family and adored the immense creativity and has always been excited to share these films with friends. Within the last few years she’s been revisiting the hundreds of video tapes living in the basement of her childhood home, recognizing the greatness of Nollywood that needs to be shared throughout the world. She’s excited to work with Seek & Find to restore and bring the greatness of vintage Nollywood to the American stage, to share it with the limelight of a larger international audience.
