Chromatic Exploration in Linoleum Print Production in Nigeria: A Convergence of Artistic Practice and Political Expression

This paper explores how chromatic experimentation in linoleum print production facilitates the integration of artistic process and political expression in Nigeria. Through an iterative studio methodology, the project examines material protocols, colour strategies, and visual outcomes that articulate civic and sociopolitical meanings. By positioning colour choices as both formal and communicative tools, this study argues that chromatic exploration elevates linoleum printmaking beyond aesthetic concerns into a politically engaged practice. The research contributes to contemporary debates in printmaking scholarship and expands the methodological repertoire for practitioners seeking socio-cultural impact through studio work.
