Emma Prempeh b. 1996 is a British artist with Ghanaian and Vincentian heritage based in London

The tonal properties of her paintings enjoy warm, darkened earthly tones with a strong presence of blackness to invoke and project memories of events, people, and places that emphasise her appreciation of ancestral time and relationships, selfhood and transformation. Prempeh occasionally experiments with projected still and moving imagery to create painting installations that invite other experiential and performative encounters with her work. Embedded within her canvasses are hints of schlag metal, a brass alloy of copper and zinc imitative of gold leaf, representative of the exploration into the transitional journey between life and death. Over time, the material deteriorates, suggestive of the ineluctable passing of time.

Prempeh Studied at Goldsmiths University of London graduating in 2019 winning the Alumno/Space bursary award for 2020. She won 1st place for the Ingram Collection Purchase Prize and became a participating artist in Bloomberg New contemporaries 2019. Prempeh recently attended MA Painting at the Royal College of Art under the LeverHulme Trust Arts Scholarship winning the Valerie Beston Trust Arts award for 2022.
