Alvin Kofi

Alvin Kofi is an artist whose works undoubtedly sits on its own when it comes to capturing the vision of a contemporary African-Caribbean expression. Born in the UK of West Indian parents, he quickly established his reputation as one of the UK’s leading Black artists, having produced the first independent commercial prints collection. Working across a variety of mediums, his work displays a strong graphic execution, but he quite comfortably plays with the more traditional mediums such oil’s, acrylic and mixed media. His fascination with the human form is evident in his work and its connection with the mother land and its traditional cultures, but he is also conscious of and displays the present day dilemmas of diaspora Africans in the narratives of his work.
