Theresah Ankomah (Accra. Lives and works in Accra) develops sculptures, installations, weavings, paintings, and prints rooted in social engagement. She investigates the material culture of woven objects, unveiling the obscure narratives behind their creation. Her installations, seen as living archives, cross borders, cultures, and histories, passing through many hands, both known and unknown. Ankomah holds a BFA and MFA in sculpture from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology. She was a finalist for the inaugural Yaa Asantewaa Art Prize in Africa and for the Kuenyehia Art Prize for Contemporary Art. Her work was highlighted by curator Erin Christovale in Artforum’s Top Ten of 2021.
