Hannah Ekuwa Buckman is a multidisciplinary artist and the founder of Damp Opulence. Based between the UK and Ghana, her practice is an interrogation of duality – utilising industrial metalwork, textiles, and illustration to bridge the gap between biological heritage and structural design. Through Damp Opulence, she builds an archival ecosystem where complex relational dynamics are translated into wearable artefacts and visceral sculptures.
