Patrick William Dodoo is making waves as Ghana’s breakout talent in theatre and arts. Recently crowned Best in Theatre and Arts at the Forty Under 40 Awards, Dodoo blends studio art, public projects, and theatre scenography to create powerful, socially engaged work.

His signature black-and-white portraits and public pop-up studios invite communities into the creative process, turning art into a tool for empowerment and social change. As CEO of Arttricks Ghana, he also mentors young creatives, pushing the boundaries of what contemporary African art can be.

Dodoo’s win highlights the new face of Ghanaian art—one that bridges galleries, education, and public life with bold storytelling and community impact.
