Story Behind the Art:Nana Frimpong is the chief carver for the king of the Ashanti. 'Some of my work for the king includes objects with the
gye nyame (symbol for the supremacy of God), stools, staffs and other royal and ceremonial objects. I have trained and qualified some ten men in the art of skilled carving. I draw inspiration from traditional
kente cloth designs, from my family background, and from our rich Ashanti tradition.'
