Working across theatre and performance, Sutherland’s practice has a firmly feminist outlook. Often creating myths for female emancipation, she’s deeply concerned with the way culture shapes individuals and nations, and how these form perceptions of gender. Born in 1993 and based in the Ghanaian capital of Accra, Sutherland began writing narratives influenced by the West African literary canon, especially the works of Nobel Prize winning author, Wole Soyinka. Later, she began incorporating technology.
