“Being an artist to me simply means imitating the principles of creation. The world’s diversity, simplicity, beauty and colour combination is what makes my art.”
Theophilus Tetteh (b.1991) lives and works in Accra, Ghana. He studied Graphic Design and Painting at Marimus Art School, all the whilst continuing to experiment with different media. Tetteh’s practice synthesises the mechanics of the man-made environment with the natural order of the world. He has participated in solo shows and group projects across Ghana, notably the Kente Design Project for Kejetia Market (Kumasi, 2017) and National Theatre of Ghana (Accra, 2018).
