In Paris, on April 16, 2022,
As the UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Cultural Diplomacy, I was pleased to
have joined the creative team which produced Ulysses from Ghana. My own work
as an artist is dedicated to peace, especially through my sculpture Tree of Peace
which UNESCO uses as a symbol of peace. This docufiction is in itself a call for
peace, for catharsis and reconciliation following transatlantic slavery, one of the
darkest pages in the history of mankind. It looks also at the modern-day
expressions of slavery, as well as racial discrimination and looks forward to how
peoples of different races, ethnicities and religion can move on in search of a more
just world.
I am delighted that this docufiction is now serving as an inspiration to continue the
work with sequels in other countries and will be happy to associated with this
creative process.
