Onyedika Chuke

Onyedika Chuke is a New York-based American sculptor and archivist born in Onitsha, Nigeria. His ongoing project, The Forever Museum Archive, began in 2011 and uses sculpture and found objects to examine systems of power. He graduated from The Cooper Union in 2011 and has held fellowships at The Drawing Center, Sculpture Center, Socrates Sculpture Park and Skowhegan. In 2021 Pioneer Works co-commissioned his installation The Forever Museum Archive_Circa 6000BCE, presented with LMCC at The Arts Center at Governors Island. The work draws on his research on Rikers Island, where he was a New York City Public Artist in Residence from 2018 to 2019.
