Ghanaian ceramic artist Kobina Adusah creates monumental vessels, in most cases from unglazed, natural clay. He builds up his sculptures layer by layer, using slabs of clay that he bends and assembles into large-scale volumes. The artist describes this process as a dialogue with the material. For Adusah, clay is more than just a working medium: coming straight from the earth, it serves as a carrier of touch and memory. Adusah’s works are based on the idea that every human being leaves behind traces imprinted in the earth. His vessels thus serve as containers for the invisible as well as places of remembrance.
“Contemporary Craft: Kobina Adusah”, on view at the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg (MK&G) from 27 November 2026 to 25 April 2027, is the first solo museum exhibition devoted to the Ghanaian ceramic artist Kobina Adusah (b. 1999 in Sekondi, Ghana) and his first solo show in Germany. A new series that Adusah is currently working on forms the focus of the exhibition. The artist achieved international recognition in 2025 when he was nominated for the prestigious LOEWE FOUNDATION Craft Prize.
