Why I Decided to Start the Uzoma Obasi Art Trade Program for Interior Designers

When it comes to creating art, my mission has always been about more than just creating something beautiful. I want my pieces to endure, to become part of a family’s legacy, and to carry meaning that resonates across generations. With this vision in mind, I felt it was time to collaborate more directly with those who know how to curate and transform spaces: the talented interior designers who share an instinct for what will make a lasting impact in someone’s life.

Interior designers understand that art is not just decor. It is an element of a room that can speak volumes, inspire conversation, and even change how someone feels within a space. That is why I decided to create the Uzoma Obasi Art Trade Program, a way to work hand-in-hand with designers to bring my art into homes, offices, and other spaces in ways that feel personal and intentional.

Why This Program Is Different

Most trade programs offer designers a standard discount, but I wanted to do something that felt more in line with the gallery experience. Designers who join my program can earn commissions similar to those offered in galleries, up to fifty percent. This is not about just giving designers a “perk”; it is about recognizing their role in bringing my work to people who will truly appreciate it. I want to build a partnership, not just a transactional relationship.

Art Tailored to Your Client’s Vision

I believe every client deserves something unique, which is why designers in the program receive priority access for custom commissions. I know that in interior design, it is often about capturing a feeling or aligning with a vision that only the client and designer can truly see. By prioritizing custom requests, I can collaborate with you to create pieces that reflect your client’s personality and vision, not just something to fill a wall or corner.

Making the Process Seamless

I also know that working with art, especially high-quality, heirloom art, can be a bit daunting for designers trying to balance budgets, deadlines, and client expectations. This program is set up to make things easier, from providing digital mock-ups to offering dedicated support. I want designers to feel that they have a reliable partner in this process, someone who respects the demands of their work and is here to help them bring the best to their clients.

A Legacy That Lasts

In the end, my goal is to create a relationship where we are not just working together but building a legacy together. By joining this program, you are not only adding exclusive, meaningful art to your clients’ spaces; you are helping to bring an enduring piece of my work into their lives, something that will last far beyond today’s trends.

I am excited about the connections this program will foster and look forward to collaborating with designers who share a passion for art that is not just purchased but invested in. So, if you are an interior designer who resonates with this vision, I would love for you to apply and see what we can create together.
