Nando Nkrumah is a German-Ghanaian artist whose work is driven by a commitment to empowerment and the accessibility of spaces. Drawing from a multifaceted life and the diverse perspectives of his surroundings, he translates lived experience into expressive images, installations, and artistic interventions.
For Nkrumah, empowerment and imagination are the cornerstones of his practice. Through alternative narratives infused with elements of science fiction, fantasy, and technology, he reimagines the diverse and complex histories, cultural practices, and lived experiences of Black communities—placing them in a bold, future-oriented context. His work opens up (Afro)futuristic, utopian spaces that invite viewers to dream, question, and re-envision.
Spanning painting, drawing, and digital media, Nkrumah’s artistic expression goes beyond the visual. He also considers the medium and the use of exhibition space as powerful tools for dismantling barriers and reshaping narratives.
As part of africologneLOCAL, Nando Nkrumah will present a selection of his works and invite visitors—especially members of the Black and Afro-diasporic community—to join him for two interactive afternoons of Sketch & Connect.
