About • Biography
I am Samuel Kwasi Akonnor, a multidisciplinary artist from Ghana, painting through pain and persistence. Living with cervical dystonia, my body becomes both subject and medium—each mark carrying the weight of lived experience. Through symbolic self-portraits and layered materials, I reveal the tension between the seen and unseen, the spoken and unspoken. My work is a visual language of identity, struggle, and cultural memory, echoing not only my story but the voices of those often unheard. In every piece, I seek to transform vulnerability into strength, inviting viewers to confront, feel, and reflect.
