This is a portrait of my Father and was the starting point for my body of work "Ancestral Foundations". It is painting exploring my Fathers connection to Ghana and how this relationship has changed through the years. He now finds himself at a point where he has lived more of his life in the UK than in Ghana. Yet his homeland and culture that he grew up with is still a huge part of his identity and something he clings onto. Within the painting are images from old family photo albums capturing images of his family and childhood memories as he is surrounded by gradually fading fragments from his past.
