Motion and mundanity are central themes in Alfred Addo’s work, where sharply crafted figures are depicted in movement within simple, everyday settings. A member of a family of four Ghanaian artist siblings, Addo now works from the United States, creating pieces that reflect his heritage and the spirit of his people. Using sawdust and resin—techniques he learned as a child—Addo’s work aims to engage a global audience, inviting viewers to explore unfamiliar places and experiences through his art, and offering a unique perspective on both local and universal human narratives.
