On this episode I'm joined by Gideon Appah. Born in Accra, Ghana in 1987, Gideon received his Bachelor of Fine Arts at The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi, Ghana in 2012. Appah lives and works in Ghana. With a diverse practice that ranges from the expressionistic to the surreal, Appah draws from his personal experiences to depict life in his native Accra. Appah’s work investigates his childhood as well as local mythologies, ethereal landscapes, rivers, domestic interiors, and recurring figures both imagined and known, such as his grandmother and brother. He has also created traditional portraiture and painted dreamlike scenes of jewel-toned figures in imaginative, symbol-laden landscapes.
It’s a Sunday afternoon in Gideon’s studio in Kasoa, about an hour’s drive from Accra, where he’s working on a painting for his latest show on view now at Pace Gallery in London when we begin talking about his work and studio practice.
