About the Artist
Appau Jnr Boakye‑Yiadom (b. 1985, Ghana; raised UK) is a London‑based painter investigating themes of diaspora, masculinity, heritage, and healing. With expressive brushwork, layered surfaces, and symbolic imagery, his canvases evoke emotional depth and personal narratives. His work has been exhibited at Tate Modern, ICA London, and internationally. Boakye‑Yiadom uses both figurative portraiture and abstracted form to challenge colonial memory and public representation.
