Dil-Humphrey Umezulike, better known as Dilomprizulike (born 1960 in Enugu, Nigeria) is a contemporary artist working in sculpture, performance and painting who has adopted the moniker "Thejunkmanfromafrika". He studied art at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Nigeria, and has an MFA from the University of Dundee, Scotland.
In his work he recycles and transforms heaps of old clothing and other detritus found on city streets, creating sculptural installations and performances that reflect the disenfranchised situation of many African people.
