EVENT: “MY CHI AND I” UGONNA HOSTEN IN CONVERSATION WITH ADJOA ARMAH- 1-54 Art Fair, Somerset House

Ugonna Hosten talks with Adjoa Armah about the imaginative journey into her ancestral spiritual and cultural roots that defines her practice. 

Ugonna Hosten is a multi-disciplinary visual artist working across collage, drawing, and printmaking. Her work represents a kind of evolution, piecing fragments together and investigating experiences — historical, personal and imagined. Striving to convey the dimensions of the self and its connection to a collective unconscious, the artist’s explorations build on a rich legacy and tradition of storytelling and myth making.

Adjoa Armah is an artist, educator, and writer. Her practice meditates on memory and the layered realities we carry within our bodies. Drawing on personal and collective histories, she navigates the intersections of grief, cultural memory, and resilience, particularly as they emerge within diasporic and post-colonial contexts. She is the founder of saman archive, a gathering of photographic negatives encountered across Ghana. 

Panelists: Ugonna Hosten, Multidisciplinary Visual Artist; Adjoa Armah, Artist, Writer and Educator
