Peace for me is like white paint. I find it is something I have to consciously put on. It requires that I pay attention to the moments my thoughts begin to darken; that I seek out the things that give me joy and generously paint my mind with them. Peace for me is a decision – a decision to apply a new coat of paint every day because the rain of yesterday may have washed some of my paint away.
My name is Chudy Ogobegwu and I am a Nigerian fine art photographer obsessed with the idea of beauty and the ability of art to impact real-life issues.
I am currently exploring themes of mental health, personal peace, domestic abuse and gender violence.

Hmmm! Yesterday’s paint; today’s pains; tomorrow’s… All connected. Well done!
