In this episode I speak with Maku a renowned visual artist whose work pushes the boundaries of traditional art, creating pieces that are as jarring as they are captivating. As a multidisciplinary artist, she's not only a painter but also a sculptor, creating organic, semi-abstract forms that engage the senses and invite viewers into a deeply personal space.
Maku shares her personal challenges, particularly her experience of moving to a new country and feeling a heightened sense of vulnerability and how that led to her powerful journey of self-discovery and resilience. Maku also speaks about her path to overcoming obstacles and finding her voice as an artist. She emphasizes the importance of pushing through adversity, embracing failure, and seizing opportunities to grow.
We also speak about her professional aspirations which include continuing to create sculptures and inspiring the next generation of artists in Ghana.
