Jerry Buhari is a Professor of Fine Art, Dept. of<br />

Fine Arts, Ahmadu Bello University Zaria. He was<br />

born on the 11th July 1959 and is from Akwaya,<br />

Kachia L.G.A., Kaduna State, Nigeria. Buhari believes<br />

that artists have always been in the forefront<br />

of the deliberation on the environment and this<br />

has helped to shape his current ideas and forms.<br />

(McCann et al. 2014) noted that his paintings and<br />

installations lately have focused more on such<br />

themes as the ravages of bush fires, negative<br />

effects of oil spillage, and excessive consumerism.
