Co-FOUNDER
Gracey Owusu Agyemang is an emerging Multidisciplinary designer from Ghana & Namibia whose work focus on Afrofuturism through the lens of agriculture. She is on the MA fashion program at Central Saint Martins and is a 2023/24 BFC MA Scholarship recipient. Afro futurism to her is to evaluate the past to inform the future in order to create better earth conditions and multiple identity’s of being for Black & African people. Designer qualities are playing on the fusion of masculinity and femininity within garments using materiality and narrative as tools. She uses afro-futurism as a tool to reimagine life within African environments that are minimally modernised to preserve traditional practices of agriculture while acknowledging the digital world. Being born in Zambia and hailing from Western & Southern Africa, she is afforded a benefit of understanding multiple traditions and culture. Her current work seeks to create fashion pieces/products that regenerate the soil and restores the earth.
