THE WRITINGS ON THE WALL

SCCA  

September 13, 2025 - December 7, 2025

Tamale, Ghana

SCCA Tamale is pleased to present The Writing’s on the Wall (TWTW), the institution’s first mission- driven show dedicated to women artists, opening 13th September of 2025. Featuring art by a mix of millennials, Gen Zers, baby boomers, and ancestors, this powerful, vulnerable, and seductive show shares intimate and rarely seen sides of a spectrum of artists who are testing the bounds of their fields, cultures, and realities. All of these artists are knowledge-keepers, hackers, healers, and conceivers in various ways, and the shape of the exhibition reflects and opens space for their creative regeneration. The question of regeneration runs throughout the artists’ work and the exhibition at large, where “walls” and “wombs” are explored as structures of care and conception, protection and aggression, limitation and control, beauty and borders.

Participating Artists: Tracy Naa Koshie Thompson, Lois Selasie Arde-Acquah, Priscilla Kennedy, Kezia Ouomoye, Afia Prempeh, Fibi Afloe, Zohra Opoku, Baerbel Mueller, Nuotama Bodomo, Nyornuwofia Agorsor,
Na Chainkua Reindorf, Naomi Boahemaa Sakyi Jnr., Akosua Odeibea Amoah-Yeboah, Anna Friemoth, Penny & Pierre Gentieu
