Culture Fancier Interview

Hello!

I'm Naki Narh, an artist blending Ghanaian roots with London influences. My work explores themes of self, identity, and social consciousness, echoing challenges faced by developing nations post-independence. Using ink, acrylic, and digital mediums, my evolving style features vibrant colors and intricate patterns.

In my illustration work, I love playing with color, patterns, and texture. Collaborating with institutions and authors, I create visual narratives for audiences of all ages, highlighting human interactions and lifestyles.

Together, my art and illustrations form a fusion of influences, capturing personal and societal dynamics. Through my diverse mediums, I aim to paint a vivid, culturally rich picture that resonates with a broad audience.

  • I'm based between London, UK, and Accra, Ghana.
