Tag: Onyeka Igwe

Onyeka Igwe (b. 1986, London, UK) works at the intersections of film, sound, and archival research to examine the entangled histories of colonialism, bureaucracy, and the body. Her films weave documentary fragments with choreography, voice, and atmospheric sound, creating spaces where official records collide with personal memory. Often shot in institutions, former government sites, or contested landscapes, her work reveals the residues of power embedded in architecture and gesture. Through a practice both analytical and sensorial, Igwe reactivates the archive, turning it into a site of questioning, resonance, and reimagined futures.
