About the Item
Two men stand back-to-back, their mirrored poses creating both tension and harmony. One is dressed in a vibrant turquoise suit paired with a crisp white cowboy hat, while the other wears a bold pink suit topped with a golden hat. Their piercing blue eyes — a defining signature of Philip Letsu’s paintings — anchor the composition, engaging the viewer with a gaze that feels both direct and enigmatic. The deep plum background, richly textured, heightens the contrast of their colorful attire and frames the figures in a dramatic, timeless stage.
This portrait exemplifies Letsu’s ability to merge symbolism, style, and presence into a compelling narrative. The cowboy hats, often associated with rugged independence and Western identity, take on new meaning in his hands — transformed into symbols of individuality, duality, and cultural reinterpretation. By combining traditional portraiture with bold modern aesthetics, Letsu highlights both uniqueness and kinship, challenging viewers to reconsider the stories we attach to clothing, color, and posture.

Philip Letsu is a Ghanaian artist currently living and working in Ho, Ghana. Komla’s practice is driven by the significant need to document urban lifestyles and culture. Focusing on the power memories and imagination in relation to representation and identity formation, Philip creates paintings that confronts issues surrounding representation with the intention to document that which is neglected. The artist uses both colors in his subjects, the attire they wear, and the places inhabited to evoke a sense of urban lifestyle and culture, while focusing on the power of memories and imagination. His artistic journey confronts issues surrounding representation with the intention to document that which is neglected: the power of innocence. In his words, Letsu expresses, “My greatest inspiration is the innermost satisfaction derived after a quiet time, when I take some time off to explore positive energies found within to make paintings that feed the visual need and breed the admiration from people." Philip Letsu studied in the prestigious Ghanatta College of Arts and design in Ghana in 2016 - the same school that has produced many significant artists like Amoako Boafo, Otis Kwame, Key Quaicoe, Kwesi Botchway and the likes. He has participated in a number of local exhibitions in the country.
