Chiamonwu Joy

Chiamonwu Joy is a Nigeria hyperrealist artist. She is a graduate of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Nigeria, with a BA.Ed in English Education.

Chiamonwu, by the age of 8, had begun to draw cartoons on her sketchbooks and for her elementary school friends, out of sheer passion. In later years, she took an interest in hyperrealism.

Her attraction to the traditional and cultural values of the African people can be seen and felt by all and sundry as her artworks mainly focus on exploring and immortalizing these African values.
