Aindrea Emelife Instagram – Tomorrow marks the opening of “homegrown”, Amoako Boafo’s solo exhibition that I am honoured to have curated and been given the opportunity to immerse in the world and community he builds. The exhibition is in conjunction with the launch of dot.ateliers, a new artist residency space founded by the artist, designed by Sir David Adjaye OBE, and situated in Accra, Ghana.
It’s been a luxury to search through Boafo’s personal collection to draw together a presentation of of works that serve as a poignant reflection of his practice and its association with home and community.
As a Nigerian, I am committed to working on the continent – there is so much art history being made and decades and centuries to unravel.
Looking forward to the fruitful future of this creative hub and delighted to have been a part of its conception.
Community first. Artists first. This talent is homegrown – it is vital to exhibit and expand here.
