Dennis Ankamah Addo (niiankama)

 Dennis Ankamah Addo (niiankama) is a Ghanaian visual artist living and working in Accra and Kumasi. niiankama is a member of blaxTARLINES and is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Fine Art and Curatorial Practice at the Department of Painting and Sculpture, KNUST. His works explore the notion of ubiquity with objects that revel in histories and memories that traverse into deep time. He also explores themes of individuality, hybridity and poetic narratives. niiankama explores objecthood into its newness and expresses himself through colour, texture, material and forms that manifest in paintings, sculptures, films, installations and drawings and much more.

He was part of the group exhibitions Fragments of a World After Its Own Image, APALAZZOGALLERY, Brescia, Italy (2025); 360° +: Facets, Rears and Musings Beyond Urban Cues (2024-2025) Ghana, and Temporary Home (2024) in Estonia.
