Heather Agyepong

Heather Agyepong is a British Ghanaian visual artist, performer/actor and maker who lives and works in London. Her  art practice is concerned with mental health and wellbeing, invisibility, the diaspora and the archive. She uses both lens-based practices and performance with an aim to culminate in a cathartic experience for both herself and the viewer. She adopts the technique of re-imagination to engage with communities of interest and the self as a central focus within the image. 

Heather Agyepong was nominated for Prix Pictet  & Paul Huf Award in 2016, 2018 & 2021. Her work exists in a number of collections including Autograph ABP, Centre national des arts plastiques, The Hyman Collection, Arts Council England, New Orleans Museum of Art, Bristol Museum & Art Gallery and Mead Art Museum.
