Artwork location: Ghana
This captivating artwork features the silhouette of a woman, her profile outlined against a vibrant tapestry of colors. Her form is imbued with dynamic blues, greens, and golden hues, resembling a celestial map or an abstract universe contained within her. The use of a white net-like overlay adds texture and depth, suggesting the interplay between confinement and freedom. This netting contrasts the lively internal colors, creating a striking visual dichotomy. The grayscale background features soft, abstract shapes, enhancing the central figure's vivid allure. This amalgamation of textures and colors highlights the juxtaposition of inner vibrancy against external constraints, making the piece both visually arresting and deeply thought-provoking. The artwork commands attention with its masterful blend of abstraction and representation, provoking introspection on identity and the myriad layers that compose the self.

Presentation
Evans Torngmortey Akornor is a Ghanaian contemporary artist (b. 2001) in Ningo, a typical coastal village and a suburb of Tema in the Greater Accra region of Ghana. Received a BFA in painting and sculpture at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology and is a member of the blaxTARLINES collective Kumasi. Growing up in a typical coastal village, Akornor started paying peculiar attention to the idea of community as a motherboard for a series of other peripheral schemes like chaos, coincidence, and the idea of the “everyday"nuanced within the sea and the shorelines as a physical space to breed possibilities. Akornor uses painting as a point of entry into an exploration of materials and techniques that are foreign to conventional art making.
Certain traits of the fishermen, the behavioral qualities of the metallic tools and materials used in fishing, sound, the continued invasion of people, and certain extractive culture within this community inform contextually his wide-ranging artistic practice. Akornor primarily incorporates unconventional materials like seawater, fishing nets, fishing ropes, anchors, and fishing sinkers into his work. While Akornor considers himself a painter, his artistic practice skirts, performances, video installations, sound installations, and spoken word poetry.
He's an artist who consistently broadens his collection of influences, inspirations, and communities while recognizing the significant impact of art history on his creative process.
