In this episode, MwanaKIPAYA invites you to a conversation in which he explores Ethel's pursuit of Art, what it means to her and her experience of working in the creative industry in Ghana and Nigeria. Ethel-Ruth Tawe is a multidisciplinary artist, editor, and creative consultant, exploring African identity and diaspora cultures through visual storytelling. She holds an MSc in Development Studies from SOAS University of London and a BA (Hons) in International Human Rights with a minor in Art History & Criticism. Her research analysed provisions to safeguard tangible and intangible cultural heritage in Africa, and interrogated the construct of citizenship and belonging from primarily African epistemologies. Living in Cameroon, Tanzania, Kenya, The US, UK, Netherlands, and Ghana has informed her diverse approach to artistic experimentation. Many of her works showcase these visual cultures and aim to cultivate discourse about Pan-African identity and the archive. Ethel is currently based between West Africa and Europe where she works with brands seeking to amplify African arts & culture.
