About • Biography
My name is Kofi Amoako, a Ghanaian visual artist. I work mainly with charcoal and acrylic paint, creating figurative and sometimes surreal artworks. My practice is strongly influenced by Adinkra symbols. These symbols hold deep meanings and teachings passed down through generations. In my work, I explore the interpretations of these symbols and present them in a more contemporary way. I use them to highlight ideas about identity, belongingness, and the everyday lessons that guide our lives. My goal is to make these cultural messages more accessible, while also reflecting the experiences and values that shape who we are.
