Ibrahim Mahama: Art and Global South Solidarity

Ibrahim Mahama: Art and Global South Solidarity

Ibrahim Mahama is a famous artist from Ghana who recently visited India for an art event called the Kochi-Muziris Biennale.

He made an art installation called 'Parliament of Ghosts' using old chairs and jute sacks.

He believes art helps us think about fixing things, not just physically but also in our minds and history.

He thinks it's important for countries in the Global South, like Ghana and India, to work together.

He also believes that art can be made anywhere, not just in a studio.

His studio in Ghana, called Red Clay, is a place where people can experience and learn about art in new ways.

He will be visiting India again in February for another art fair in Delhi.
