Duarte Sequeira is delighted to announce Stimulation of Consciousness, the first solo exhibition of artist Serge Attukwei Clottey in Portugal, opening on Saturday, September 24, 2022.
Stimulation of Consciousnessillustrates the artist’s experimental approach to materials and explores pressing socio-political and environmental issues in Ghana, inextricably linked to migration and trade. Working across sculpture, painting, performance, installation, and photography, Serge Attukwei Clottey explores the potent agency and potential of common objects, addressing their migration history, how they can serve as cultural relics and symbols of consumption and waste, and the ways in which they are linked to personal narratives and collective histories.
