Derrick Ofosu Boateng

location: Accra, Ghana


Derrick Ofosu Boateng (Accra, 1998) is an award winning fine art photographer and founder of the African Art movement ‘Hueism’.  Inspired by the wisdom of African proverbs and the richness of the continent, he creates vibrant images that veer between visual poetry and color therapy.

Boateng employs his unique chromatic language, stark silhouettes, which translate as lessons learned from proverbial storytelling to challenge negative and limited perceptions of African culture. Since the beginning of Derrick’s artistic journey, his photography and post-production have been entirely iPhone-based. Boateng’s work brims with energy, color and meaning, which are also the leading principles of Hueism.

As a teenager, Derrick Ofosu Boateng started taking pictures with his father’s phone. This is how he developed his taste of image-making and how he taught himself about digital photography and its possibilities.

In 2017, he started sharing his work on social media, which enabled him to build a platform to share his vision of Ghanaian life and represent daily experiences & lessons. Boateng’s work proposes a kaleidoscopic and colorful portrait of his country from within.

More recently his work was featured in magazines (Vogue, Bazzar, The Guardian), album covers (A beautiful revolution part 1 & 2 for Common), and even a symbol of struggle and empowerment during the war in Sudan with one of his self-portraits. If Boateng’s life could be recounted as a success story, it is first and foremost about the humility of making, the joy of sharing and positive documentation of life on the African continent.
