Serge Attukwei Clottey’s practice explores memory, movement and belonging through Afrogallonism, a visual and conceptual language named for, and centred around, the yellow Kuffuor gallon—plastic containers originally used to transport cooking oil and later widely repurposed across Ghana for storing and carrying water, fuel and other everyday essentials. Drawn to the coastline, Clottey continues his exploration of the relationship between material, place and water, building on an earlier body of work created along Ghana’s coast. Wole Worhe (We Know Each Other) (2026) brings this ongoing investigation to Abu Dhabi, where the sea meets the historic port and the city’s evolving landscape. Unfolding across the breakwater, the installation extends the repurposed Kuffuor gallons into the coastal landscape, while a central viewing platform opens towards the sea and historic port. The work moves between the intimacy of an enclosed space and the expanse of its maritime surroundings, creating a dialogue between the material’s origins and its new setting.
