Achike Anayo Miracle, born in 1986 in Anambra state Nigeria is a multi-disciplinary artist based in Lagos Nigeria. He holds a Higher National Diploma in painting from the School of Art and Design at Auchi Polytechnic. He is an experimental artist with an interest in exploring possibilities with acrylics, oils, charcoal, and pen and incorporating other media and found objects to create collages and mixed media works. Highly known for his distorted human figures.
The human figure typically embodies the narratives he wants to share with his audience. He covers the eyes of police officers with Nigerian/foreign currencies to delineate their obsession with extortion and bribery. The bulgy eyes of his subjects depict the fact that we live in a generation where everyone is exposed, knowledgeable, and wise in their own eyes, without realizing that they can also self-imprison themselves with their knowledge.
The stretched necks of his figures portray the insatiable nature of man/woman, in all their getting and achievements man keeps looking for and striving to acquire more., the absence of the ear in his figures is his way of reckoning that people of his generation do not listen and often go against advice, counsel, or rebuke.
He uses his art not just as a hobby, but as a means of communicating, preaching, and advocating for global peace, love, tolerance, justice, self-esteem, and a better world for the human race. He is a member of the Society of Nigerian Artists(SNA) and the Pan-African Circle of Artists(PACA). His works have been exhibited in Nigeria and internationally and rising in global art collections.

We live in a society that is rife with kidnapping, dilapidated schools, police harassment, extortion, and war.
