Thaddaeus Ropac London brings together eight contemporary artists for Like Music in the Blood, a group exhibition exploring the body
Tanoa Sasraku (b. 1995, London, UK) is a British contemporary artist working across sculpture, installation and moving image. Tanoa Sasraku’s work explores themes of identity, diaspora, history and belonging, drawing on Ghanaian heritage alongside personal and collective narratives. Her practice often examines how cultural memory and material form intersect.
Sasraku frequently works with industrial and natural materials such as metal, coal, wood and resin, creating sculptural forms that appear suspended, fragmented or in transition. These materials reference processes of extraction, migration and transformation, linking physical matter to historical and social experience. Tanoa Sasraku’s installations often combine objects with film and sound, creating immersive environments that shift between past and present.
Tanoa Sasraku has exhibited internationally in museums and galleries and is part of a new generation of British artists engaging with identity, materiality and postcolonial histories. Her work contributes to contemporary sculpture through its focus on environment, narrative and embodied experience.
