Reimagining Ghana
Read Amanda’s Letter, here.
FORTY-FOUR WORDS is realising a creative inquiry into the notion of Ghana as a new nation. This exploration is inspired by Ghana: An African Portrait, a book housed in the V&A's collection.
We're reimagining narratives concerning Ghana's post-colonial identity through a contemporary lens, while experimenting with insider-outsider perspectives to enrich our cultural discourse.
Reimagining Ghana has been a beautiful journey of workshops, events, talks and more. It continues. Read the commissioned non-fiction writings, here.

Our goal is to challenge and redefine traditional narratives concerning Ghana's post-colonial identity, offering an insider's view of contemporary Ghana through words. We’re exploring intriguing ways of archiving identity that feel closer to home.

This project is for the creative and curious - especially those interested in art and literature, cultural storytelling, and Ghana's rich heritage. In particular, we're keen to engage British-Ghanaians, Ghanaians, and anyone intrigued by post-colonial Ghana and its cultural complexities.
