This work titled MATEMATIKOR IV, is an imaginative expression of numbers and symbols. Set against a bright blue background, it makes playful use of the numbers, symbols, and geometrical shapes that govern the universe. These symbols are translated into a visual language that conveys the ubiquity and relevance of maths in every aspect of our lives.

Being originally an autodidact artist, Ghanaian painter and musician Nyornuwofia Agorsor (b. 1983) supplemented her personally garnered skills with some studies at Kofi Agorsor’s studio. As an instrumentalist, songwriter, composer and performer, she is also the vivacious lead vocalist of the Agorsor Band.
Her works draw from certain esoteric African knowledge systems of education, which, in their fullness, train and tune the mind in order to bring forth one’s own creative genius. Nyornuwofia believes that there is an urgent need for Africa to change her servitude system of education, which, according to her, does little to encourage practicality, lacking the potential to nurture and grow the minds that will exploit and add value to our human and natural resources.
Employing mathematical and geometrical symbols, classroom spaces, and intelligible and unintelligible texts, she captures, sometimes with humour or satire, the position of Africa today, Africa tomorrow, and Africa yesterday. All come in the guise of pure stretches of colour and drawings tinged with an alluring childlike naiveté.
