Ekow Nimako

Ekow Nimako is a Ghanian-Canadian artist, born in 1979. He works and lives in Toronto, where he has started to use Lego bricks since 2013 as his material to art works . Besides using lego, what is exceptional is that he use only one color - black. But as we can observe in  following material, he is not limited by black color, he rest open-minded to ideas and inspirations. In addition, what he want to express in his art, it is the topic of race and strangeness. His the most popular work is the one named "Silent Knight" which aroused interest of visitors during "Nuit Blache" (equivalent to the Night of Museums).
