Ibrahim Mahama: Songs About Roses

Fruitmarket Show Dates: 1 Aug 2024-26 Aug 2024

The first-ever solo exhibition in Scotland of the work of Ibrahim Mahama: a Ghanaian artist acclaimed for his evocative large-scale, site-specific installations that address the cultural and social effects of postcolonialism and global migration. For Fruitmarket, Mahama is making a brand-new body of work inspired by the gallery's unique physical location, supported on columns above Waverley railway station. This proximity to – and dependence on – the railway is the starting point for large-scale drawings, sculpture and installations referencing his own interest in and using material from the now defunct colonial-era railway of Ghana.
