A Journey From The Past To The Present

Art:
A timeless expression of skill and ethos, harnessing diverse media and hues that tells the story of the mind of its creator. The rich culture of the African people is etched into our very art .It remains our escape, our communique, our very lives perpetually encapsulated using wood, cloth, bronze and other media in an exquisite way. To us, art is life: a channel that bears the tales of years gone by and a guide to shaping our future pathways whilst narrating to us the epistle of our journey as a people, our battles and our victories, from the past to the present.

It is in this light that AMBA Gallery presents A Journey From The Past To The Present Exhibition of bronze sculptures ,wood carvings, stools , Kente and Asafo flags dating more than two decades , handled by master craftsmen, laced with stories of resilience, wealth and magic, and crafted by artisans with skill, passion and purpose, giving each piece a unique story. The pieces which would be displayed on a background with a texture of the indigenous African feel of terra cotta would not only bring the spirit behind the pieces to life, it would awaken the inner artist within you as you indulge and connect to them. These pieces from Ghana, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Mali and Nigeria, and each have a tale to tell and a connection to the lands of origin.

Indeed, art in AMBA is not just representation, it is culture that can be handled, seen and felt. It is our link to our ancestor and a guide to future trajectories.

Welcome to happiness unfolding.
