KING

About


King Uranta is a visual artist and designer based in Lagos, Nigeria. Grounded in a professional graphic design background, his practice expanded into 3D composition and animation in 2019, and continues to evolve through an ongoing exploration of photography.


For Uranta, these varying mediums are tools to articulate the psychological weight and complexity of life. Each piece he develops becomes a reflection of thought and emotion, translated through color, texture, and form.


Driven by rigorous conceptual experimentation, his practice is actively pushing beyond the screen. While his current work is rendered digitally, Uranta is laying the structural groundwork to eventually translate his 3D concepts into tangible, physical sculptures.


Whether crafting introspective visual pieces or conceptualizing future physical objects, his art is a demand for pause, inviting viewers to confront their own realities and connect with the profound sincerity of the moment.
