Worldfaze presents “MEMORIES IN FORMS” by Selorm Amekorfia

Worldfaze Art Practice is pleased to present ‘Memories in Forms’, an exhibition of works by artist
Selorm Amekorfia, created during his residency early this year. The show runs from 25th October to
30th November, 2025.
Selorm Amekorfia’s latest body of work, developed during his recent residency, marks a compelling
evolution in his multidisciplinary practice. Rooted in a bit of abstraction, these new works reflect a
deepened engagement with organic forms and the emotional landscapes they evoke. By drawing
inspiration from his imagination, objects seen and sometimes unseen, and the rhythm of the human
body, Selorm opens a space for freedom, fluidity, and intuitive exploration.
Selorm’s primary mediums are mesh, POP cement, cement, mirror, and acrylic paint, which speak to
both physicality and reflection. Each sculptural piece is an encounter, not only with form but also
with memory and presence. The tactile qualities of his chosen materials ground the work in
structure and weight, while the reflective surfaces of mirrors and the fluid gestures of acrylic paint
offer moments of introspection and movement.
At the heart of this body of work is Selorm’s ongoing dialogue with his surroundings, both physical
and emotional. His sculptures are not only studies in material and form; they are vessels of personal
connection, shaped by his relationship with his environment. The use of construction materials
becomes a metaphor for building and sustaining these connections, while the organic shapes
suggest the ever-evolving, sometimes unpredictable nature of human bonds.
Amekorfia’s practice resists the constraints of strict categorization. Instead, it thrives in the in-
between, between sculpture and painting, abstraction and narrative, the external world and inner
experience. These new works invite viewers to slow down, observe, question their imagination, and
find their own reflections in the gentle curves and unexpected textures of the forms before them.
Through this exhibition, Selorm Amekorfia offers not only a study of materials and shapes but also a
deeply personal meditation on how we inhabit space, both our own and that shared with others.
Selorm Amekorfia is a self-taught multidisciplinary Ghanaian artist whose practice draws upon everyday
experience, cultural heritage, and geographical contexts. Working across painting, performance art, and
sculpture, he employs vibrant palettes to articulate the human experiences, offering pathways for connection
and resilience.
The mirror is significant in his practice and occupies a central position in his symbolic framework, which
interrogates themes of identity, reincarnation, and communication.
Amekorfia’s works have been exhibited in Ghana and at international institutions as well. His exhibitions
include “Afro-transcendence” (performance) at Vine After, Accra, Ghana; “A Gentle Seed” at McLennonpenco
Gallery, Texas, USA; “Threads of Identity” (performance) at The Mix Gallery, Accra, Ghana; and “Shika Shika Art
Fair” at Christiansborg Castle, Accra, Ghana.
In 2023, he received the Société Générale Artivity Grant, with his work “Ayisha” acquired for their collection.
Amekorfia has recently completed a residency program at the Worldfaze Art Practice, where he has been able
to explore and evolve in his practice.
Amekorfia continues to inspire audiences to embrace their journeys and discover transformation within
fragmentation.
