oWesbili (2025) and oWesthathu (2025) by South African artist Njabulo Hlophe embody the ancestral presence of African belief systems, reinterpreted through contemporary visual languages of deities and gods.

Currently on view in Accra, Hlophe’s works move between memory and imagination. He describes his practice as storytelling through a series of conversations that operate both inwardly and outwardly, shaped by lived experience and surrounding worlds.

This body of work traces echoes of ancestral faiths, reimagining African cultural objects as vessels of divine presence.
Through surreal reinterpretations, Hlophe reflects on how belief systems shift, endure, and transform across time.

is proud to co-curate The Last Frontier, an exhibition hosted by and celebrating a generation that bridges the digital divide between analogue and digital worlds.

Honouring those who carry both memory and momentum, the exhibition shines a light on creatives with one foot grounded in physical, lived culture and the other reaching boldly into the limitless digital realm. This generation stands as a living archive preserving stories, sounds, and experiences while actively shaping the future.

Warm congratulations to the exhibiting artists: Ezra Appiah, Kweku Abeiku, P Kofuma, Njabulo Hlope, Afronite Stoic, and Di Omande Assane. ✨🎉
