Kofi Paintsil

Kofi is a multidisciplinary photographer operating in London. His portfolio includes work for the BBC, Chanel, Channel 4, Nike and Kensington Palace.

A passionate visual artist, Kofi also draws on his skill for illustration and an eye for the moving image. His pictures have been exhibited in London, Paris, Ghana and Art Basel Miami.

Kofi completed an art foundation at Camberwell College of Arts, with thoughts of being an illustrator or sculptor before, as he puts it, "photography and I found each other". After completing his BA in photography and history of art at Middlesex University, he started to work in fashion photography, learning more about his craft as a studio assistant to some of the world's top fashion photographers.

Whether working in fashion or portraiture, capturing the movement of dance or exploring the nude form, Kofi has developed a visual language that embraces his many disciplines and focuses on space, shape and light.
