Maame Adjoa Ohemeng (b. 2000, Accra/ Kumasi, Ghana) is a Ghanaian artist currently pursuing Master of Fine Art and Curatorial Practice, majoring in painting, at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST). She is a member of blaxTARLINES. Ohemeng uses the technique of mixed media painting to depict playful and utopian scenes mostly crafted from spontaneous events and stories sourced from her local vicinity and beyond. Her mixed media paintings borrow ideas from what is commonly known as children’s stories (bed time stories and fairytales), animated books, Japanese animation (Anime) and comic (Manga). She also tells stories by creating fictional characters based on issues such as gender and sexuality while exploring post-humanism from a feminist perspective.
She has participated in exhibitions such as Roses are Roselle plants and are Hibiscus (2022) and A Little like a Dream: Suspended in TIME and SPACE (2023), which took place at the National Museum of Ghana. In 2024 she emerged as the first runner up in The Yaa Asantewaa Prize organized by Gallery1957 for women artists in Ghana.
