Memorial

Dr Uwa James Usen

xx xx, xxxx - xx xx, xxxx

Born on 12 May 1963, Dr Usen attended secondary school at St. Gregory’s College, Obalende in Lagos. From there, he studied fine art with a specialisation in sculpture at the prestigious Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. In 1988, he earned his Masters degree in fine art( sculpture) at the same institution and later gained a PhD at the University of Port Harcourt. A distinguished fellow of the SNA, Dr Uwa James Usen will be missed sorely by all those who loved him; students, colleagues and family alike. He will also be remembered painfully by the visual arts community in Nigeria.

Condoleances

Barr Enobong Etuk

A very stylish man, soft spoken with an air of accomplishment. May the Lord comfort the family you have left behind, and may your legacies live on

May his dear, gentle soul rest in peace.

We only connected recently and it was too brief. I remember our Ikoyi days and the fun we all had at your place. You followed your parents cue and welcomed us to your house. My siblings and I were always there, eating. Our parents used to have to beg us to come back home. As playful as you were, you didn't play with your studies. An inspiration always. You were talented and made Nigeria proud. You are so missed. Safe travel dear Uwa. No more pain where you are. Adieu.
