Chizu Anucha, cr\u00e9dits Marco Cornelli<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Chizu Anucha (aka chizu nnamdi) is in residency at Villa Arson from January 29 to April 8 in the framework of the Magnetic 2 program. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Scotsman of Nigerian origin, Chizu Anucha graduated from Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh in structural engineering and architectural design, and holds a Master of Design in sound for the moving image from Glasgow School of Art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His multidisciplinary and collaborative practice is at the intersection of music composition, video and performance.
<\/em>His moving image work is poetic and reflexive, while his music brings together internal conflicts, yearnings and nostalgic relics to investigate the historical tensions inherent in the publicness of the black body. With this he experiments in the formation of historical and fictional narratives, often by recontextualizing archive film and collages of VHS video with a music soundtrack at the fore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His work has been presented in numerous festivals, museums and contemporary art centres in Scotland, including the Royal Glasgow Institute (2020), Edinburgh Art Festival (2021), Victoria & Albert Museum Dundee (2021), David Dale Gallery (2022), Burrell Collection (2023) and Glasgow Short Film Festival (2023).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magnetic 2 is an artists residency programme of Fluxus Art Projects that brings together eight institutions: four in France – Villa Arson in Nice, CAPC in Bordeaux, Frac Bretagne in Rennes, Frac Grand Large in Dunkirk- and four in the United Kingdom \u2013 Cove Park in Scotland, Wysing Arts Centre in England, Flax Art Studios in Northern Ireland and Aberystwyth Arts Centre in Wales. Magnetic will gradually build an expanding network of partner residencies with shared commitments and values. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magnetic 2 is supported by the Institut fran\u00e7ais du Royaume-Uni, the Institut fran\u00e7ais, French ministry of Culture, French ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, Creative Scotland, Arts Council England, Arts Council of Wales \/ Wales Arts International, Arts Council of Northern Ireland, the British Council and its precious private patrons and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n
