I’ve Been Here, Somewhere
I’ve Been Here, Somewhere is a new demo that responds to Ama Dogbe’s research on collecting, hoarding and the politics of knowledge – who keeps it, how it circulates, and how value is placed upon it. The demo creates an immersive environment that is both a world and a living archive, creating space for the people and things that might otherwise be forgotten. The work was developed during Ama’s participation on the FLAMIN Fellowship, supported by Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network and Arts Council England.
Ama Dogbe is a British-Ghanaian artist whose work engages with a range of personal and societal themes through digital mediums including video games, digital animations and audio-visual installations. Her processes use self-taught and collaborative techniques to arrive at experimental and unconventional outcomes.
Ama has been commissioned by Modern Painters, New Decorators, Loughborough (2024), Spike Island, Bristol (2023) and tiata fahodzi, Watford (2022), selected as digital artist in residence with Chisenhale Into The Wild, London (2023), and was a resident artist at BOM, Birmingham (2022). She has also exhibited with Fermynwoods Contemporary Art (2022), East Bristol Contemporary (2022) and Attenborough Arts Centre, Leicester (2021).
