Isabel Kwarteng-Acheampong is a multidisciplinary artist and director. She lives in Berlin and works transnationally with artistic and community-based projects in Germany, Ghana and Togo.
Her artistic practice explores the themes of body, memory and care, drawing on somatic practices and decolonial approaches. She places queer BIPoC experiences at the centre of her work, exploring themes of visibility, belonging and healing and creating environments that embrace complexity: Spaces for reflection, connection and vulnerability beyond representation. Influenced by Afrofuturist thought and informed by diasporic experience, their practice invites alternative ways of being rooted in gentleness, presence and collective imagination. In their work, they understand vulnerability as a form of resistance and softness as a survival strategy.
