48x60. Oil on WoodSolomon Adufah (b. 1988) is a Ghanaian, Chicago based artist. He is a multidisciplinary artist whose incredibly striking work depicts narratives and complexities of identity through cultural exchange and negotiates the social-historical paradigm of globalization in his home country and regions alike. Adufah employs inherited traditional painting themes yet carefully composed and accompanied by vibrantly colored backgrounds. He achieves artistic delineation
through his usage of bold colored patterns, textures, and shapes relevant to the everyday lives and communities he engages with. He combines specific photographic images from memory and experiences into a visually seamless arrangement. These memories become the vocabulary that informs his uniquely illustrated paintings. Adufah’s palette of colors is appointed in accordance
with the tones and nuances of his community, conveying specificity beyond the personal periphery. This constant physical engagement is mirrored in his work, carefully examining the endless parallels through his experiences.
