Awanle Ayiboro Hawa Ali
2024(b. 1997 Nima, Ghana. Lives and works in Accra, Ghana)
Awanle Ayiboro Hawa Ali, a Ghanaian visual artist delves into the realities faced by Africanwomen living within a patriarchal society. Having grown up in a strict Muslim household as the eldest daughter, Hawa experienced the weight of societal expectations and the pressureto conform to traditional norms.
Despite initial resistance, her exposure to the visual art domain and the guidance of supportive mentors ignited her latent passion, empowering her to break free from imposed expectations. Hawa's artistic exploration is deeply rooted in the intricate tapestry of her environment, serving as an anthem of liberation that portrays women adorned in suits. Dedicated to extensive research, experiments, and ceaseless artistic exploration, she navigates the delicate balance between tradition and liberation within the sacred intimacy and complexities of home.
