아서 티모시

(b. 1957, Ghana. Lives and works in Bath and London) Arthur Timothy is an artist and architect, whose artworks often depict close family members and autobiographical events , specifically in Accra, where the artist was born in the year Ghana gained independence from colonial rule, and Freetown, Sierra Leone, where he lived until the age of 9. His early large-scale oil paintings inspired by an archive of photographs found amongst his father's papers encourage considered and nuanced responses frozen in time. In fresh washes of colour, the artist presents images that are underpinned by memory, both personal and political.
