36. Wayne Clough
Amoako Boafo (2021)
2021
Oil on gesso board
60 x 50cm
Unique
Signed
Donated by the artist
Amoako Boafo was in Ghana in 1984. He rose to fame with his stylised portrait paintings which tackle issues ranging from black identity and diaspora amongst others. Coming from a poor background Boafo triumphed in the face of adversity and his meteoric rise to prominence has been a beacon for many aspiring artists who identify in some part with Boafo’s struggle and likewise his tenacity. Boafo here is staring off into the distance projecting a look of hope and perhaps future ambition.
