One of the most powerful memorials to the millions

One of the most powerful memorials to the millions of people stolen from Africa into slavery is by Ghanaian artist Kwame Akoto-Bamfo. This dramatic installation is called “Nkyinkyim” (the adinkra symbol) meaning “life’s journey is twisted” Started first in 2010, the artist draws on an Akan funeral tradition of nsodie, which dates back to at least the 17th century. Clay busts are displayed in cemeteries in order to preserve the memory and the likeness of the dead. The artist has created more than 1,300 cement effigies and embedded them in a field in Nuhalenya Ada, a town which was a stopping-point on the traffickers route in the 16th and 17th centuries. This haunting graveyard with its ancient baobab trees that stand as witnesses to the millions of stolen ancestors who drowned as they were being transported across the Atlantic Ocean as slaves.

Im selling a rare original cast brass weight from my collection.

This one most likely was ornamental, given its unusually size and weight. It depicts a man and a woman playing the game 'Oware.’ Oware is the Ghanaian name for the pit and pebble game of strategy played all over Africa.

This unique piece holds cherished memories for me. I can still recall the sound of the beads gently dropping into the wooden bowls, and the image of elders engaged in countless rounds of play beneath the ubiquitous mango trees.

In 1700 A.D.-1900 A.D Akan Gold weights made of brass were used as a measuring system by the Akan people of West Africa. Beyond their practical application, the weights are miniature representations of West African culture items such as adinkra symbols, plants, animals and people

The smaller weights were used to measure gold dust, the currency for everyday transactions. Even buying vegetables in a street market involved this process. The skill involved in casting weights was enormous; as most weights were less than 2½ ounces and their exact mass was meticulously measured.

Take a journey with me back to the roots of my pas

Take a journey with me back to the roots of my passion for travel and found objects. This faded black and white photograph captures a moment in my life, playing atop a metal barrel alongside my sister. It was one of the vessels that carried our parents' belongings when they made their return from England to Ghana. To us, the metal barrel was our locomotion, rolling it with our feet in rhythm and unison, experiencing the joy of being unregulated and feral.

In the backdrop of this photograph lies a world where playfulness and imagination thrived amidst relics from the past. Our childhood was a treasure trove of found objects - As children, we transformed them all into our own private worlds of make-believe.

Ours was a wild and untamed childhood, where we concocted tales of expeditions across unknown lands. We delved into ferocious ant hills, to find the elusive queen, fearlessly faced snakes, armed with stones and a sense of adventure.

The dusty halls of the medical school, the hospital where my father worked, became our secret sanctuary. We would escape after homework and wander through classrooms adorned with shelves of dark glass bottles. Each bottle held its own mystery, containing laboratory specimens that intrigued our young minds.

Each item in the distance travelled shop carries within it a connection to those days of my childhood, where imagination and exploration shaped my perspective on the world.
