Jacob Tetteh-Ashong has been an apprentice to his father, Joseph Ashong (more famously known as Paa Joe), a Ghanaian figurative palanquin and fantasy coffin artist.
Tetteh-Ashong first exhibited work in South Africa at THAT ART FAIR and presented a number of customised coffin maquettes from Ghana – exquisitely handcrafted sculptural artworks in their own right. Designs include everything from coke bottles to cars and are chosen to represent the person the coffin will carry.
