Cushion covers, 'Apangua' (pair)

In the Fante language of Ghana, apangua translates as "brown," the word referring to the year's closure. As fall comes to an end, the leaves on the trees turn brown and wither, signifying the year’s end. Representing this transitional mood, Nana Akua Engmann hand-crafts a pair of original cushion covers, the traditional design complementing 100% bogolan cotton. A breathtaking addition to the worldly interior.

Nana Akua Engmann

Nana Akua Engmann was born in Ghana on September 9th, 1970. Her artistic instinct found guidance at the Mfantsiman Secondary School where she studied both General and Visual Arts. Akua then entered Labone Secondary School for her Lower and Upper Sixth Form studies, where she also studied the same subjects. Akua then enrolled in the Cambridge Tutorial College where she graduated with a Diploma in Marketing.

Her great passion and talent for art led her into the area of Arts and interior décor, which is her present occupation. Influenced by the African cultural language, her creative imagination is admirable. She invites us all to experience a new dimension in aesthetics, combining materials such as Bogolan (cotton), foam, gray baft, glue. Akua's home furnishings portray traditional African culture and forms influenced by her individual response to African Arts and present social and cultural circumstances. Akua’s approach is emotional as opposed to purely academic. Her Ghanaian environment basically inspires her deisgns.

Nana Akua has now accomplished one of her dreams – to own a small company offering interior decorating services.
