PABI DANIEL b. 1999, Ghana
Pabi is known as a versatile painter and advocate of hyperrealism. An outstanding feature of the artist is the precision in depicting faces, a result of years of sculptural practice, allowing him to create a three-dimensional painting with thick strokes of paint and convey the emotions of the subjects. The artist's painting technique is inspired by the writing symbols used in Akan language - ideograms, called Adinkra. Symbols, aimed at addressing societal issues, Black identity, social and political engagement, are inserted into the gestures recreated in the paintings.
