Story Behind the Art:

Eric Danquah displayed interest in carving as a young man, and would sometimes go around helping the carvers of his community. Says Danquah, 'I learned carving from a shop for three years and later established my own workshop. I started carving as a full time profession in the year 1997 at the age of twenty-three, and now have one boy I work with. We are four children in the family, among which my junior brother and sister are also talented with the skill of carving. My brother helps me a lot at the shop.' Sese wood serves as Danquah's primary material, as he uses chisels, gouges, and axes to extract its natural beauty.
