Richard has developed himself in several media, including video in which he has
received awards. His interest in writing has also built his skills of communication in
English, organizational abilities and potentials for innovation and independent work. His
engagement of locally found media for his work, which he processes using everyday
gestures and techniques, has helped to sharpen his sensibility for the environment .
Richard is very unassuming and open to new ideas and the sharing of same. He grew up
in a rural setting in Nigeria and has built up a rich store of African culture.
