The Nsukka group was known for working to revive the practice of
uli and incorporate its designs into contemporary art using media such as
acrylic paint,
tempera,
gouache, pen and ink,
pastel,
oil paint, and
watercolor. Although traditionally
uli artists were female, many of the artists of the group were male. Some were poets and writers in addition to being artists. The Nsukka group evolved as a trend that can be sensed in the works of some African artists. It usually reveals itself an original mix of cubism and primitive arts. == Members ==
