Biography

Selinam Kofiga Gbemu is a Ghanaian multidisciplinary artist. Sel Kofiga, as he is affectionately known, resides and works in Accra, Ghana. He is interested in many. His practice and approach revolve around the politics of identity and place of belonging. He explores his relationship with these subjects through various disciplines, such as performance, photography, painting, and installation. His interest lies in space, inhabiting bodies, and objects of common/shared interest. His work implores varied methodologies that focus on the (meta)physical relationship between bodies, spaces, objects, and things. Working between a hybrid of disciplines, Kofiga's practice looks for the meaning of being and its connection with the self.

Kofiga loves black cats, the ocean, and the forest.
