Baaba Sarpong is a Contemporary Artist, who draws inspiration from her own personal experiences with trauma and her zeal to find the cause of issues in her surroundings. She was born and raised in different parts of Accra, and also works in Accra, Ghana. Her works often features raw and emotive imageries and elements such as brain cells (as motifs), natural objects and colors, which helps to shed light on the hidden struggles that so many of us face on a daily basis. By exploring figurative abstract subjects and using mediums such as painting (digital and traditional), collage, sewing, and techniques such as sketching, photography, designing, writing, etc., she invites her audiences to confront their own traumas and consider ways in which these experiences shape their perspectives on the world. Choosing “Visualizing Trauma” as her central theme, she uses her powerful and evocative artworks to delve deep into the complexities of trauma, exploring what trauma really is, how it shapes or influences our thoughts, emotions and behaviors, and how we can cope or heal our traumas. Baaba, also titles her works in her native language “Effutu”, (which is a language spoken in some parts of the Central Region of Ghana) to portray how our languages adds up to our identity or makes us who we are, motivating us to accept our identity instead of replacing it with other identities. With her artistic skills, Baaba was the recipient of the 2021 “Women in Arts and Culture” prize, from Creatr Haus, in Accra-Ghana. Her works has also been featured in several group exhibitions in galleries like The Mix Design Hub Gallery, Antique Lemonade Gallery and other art spaces in Accra- Ghana. As a dedicated artist and advocate, she hopes to inspire others to confront their own traumas and embark on a journey towards self-discovery and healing.
