David Agyei-Yeboah is a young creative from Accra, Ghana that believes in expressing gutting raw energy onto plain paper. He believes art is sacred and should be expressed with utmost care, beauty and craftsmanship; that it is the responsibility of the artist to pen humanity at its rawest, channel empathy to understand people from diverse backgrounds and translate this to writing, injecting pieces with sheer warmth and truth. People matter! Stories matter! And Africa’s stories must be told lucidly.
