'Kena Hetuna, Open & Closed'

About

From Saturday 9th March Modern Painters, New Decorators launches a new exhibition ‘Kena Hetuna, Open and Closed’ with new work from Pamela Clarkson and Atta Kwami. The exhibition is free to enter and open to all.

‘Kena Hetuna, Open and Closed’ refers to the rhythms of the marketplace, a social network made up of family businesses, ebullient characters, sales talk, signage, digital adverts, bend down boutiques and makeshift stalls open to the elements. For Pamela and Atta the marketplace symbolises the international exchange and acceptance they have experienced when living between Loughborough and Kumasi.

Pamela and Atta will partner together for the exhibition, building a temporary kiosk structure in the gallery of Modern Painters, New Decorators and filling the space with paintings, prints and sculptures recently made in Ghana alongside previously unshown work.
