Meet Onome Ekeh, Video Artist

Onome Ekeh (Video Designer) 
was born and raised on both sides of the Atlantic.
Onome started out as a painter, gravitated toward design and fell in love with cinema. Somewhere in the collusion she went digital… She has produced works for film, theater and radio and is the recipient of several fellowships including the Jerome Foundation, Greenwall Foundation and the Kunstlerhaus Buchsenhausen Fellowship. The co-founder and conceptual gear-machinitrix behind Featurezoo.net, Onome has worked as a dramaturge on projects such as Grisha Colemnan’s “Echo System”, David Thomson’s “Venus”, Okwui Okpakwasili’s “Bronx Gothic’, as well as collaborated with artists such as Knut Asdam, Clarinda Mac Low, Paul Boocock, and Carl Hancock Rux.
