Today’s throwback doesn’t go too far back... earlier this week, we welcomed Emma Prempeh to Dot Ateliers for our 2026 residency program.
Emma is a London-based British artist with Ghanaian and Vincentian heritage. Her practice explores time, memory, and lineage through painting, using layered surfaces and schlag metal—a brass alloy that oxidizes over time—capturing impermanence and transformation.
Through her work, Emma has deepened her connection to Ghana, visiting for the first time in 2021 and returning in 2022 and 2024. This residency allows her to move beyond the personal into collective inquiry, exploring how unfulfilled legacies, familial obligations, and diasporic longing shape our sense of self.
We are excited to offer the space for these explorations and can not wait to see what is birthed.
