This solo art exhibition will feature prominent guests from all across Ghana who desire to have a feel of the silk thread masterpiece arts made by the award-winning artist Kwabena Yeboah. Through abstract realism, his works explore and depict common threads and a sense of pride among Africans and diaspora societies.
The art to be displayed expresses and reflects the identity, royalty, celebrations and performances of his subjects with his threading.
Kwabena Yeboah is a Ghanaian artist with over four decades of experience in silk threading. He discovered textile art early in 1977 in Nigeria, Lagos. He evolved the craft into an art form known as silk thread art or threading back in Ghana.
Inspired by one of the wonders of nature – the black spider’s web, he creates impactful narratives and experiments with the silk medium used in traditional Kente adornment of Royals in Ghana. The artist is known for his energetic and vivid colour palette that invigorates his masterpiece, from African masks to spirits. His artworks are exhibited and collected internationally.
