Biography
Anthony Amoako-Attah (b. Obuasi, Ghana 1989) first encountered glassmaking during his Ceramics BA degree at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Ghana in 2010; glass had only just been introduced to the department. There is no tradition of glassmaking in Ghana, so he moved to Sunderland University to complete an MA in Glass; he is currently working on his PhD in Glass at Sunderland University. Recent exhibitions include Collect, London (2022 & 2023); Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens (2019); the National Glass Centre, Sunderland; and Business Design Centre, London (both 2016). He won first prize as Aspiring Glass Artist by Warm Glass, UK (2020) and was selected as Artist of the Fair at Collect, London (2022).
