Icons of Ghana

Icons of Ghana is a wearable archive honoring the figures who shaped the nation’s political, cultural, and musical identity.


Each portrait is hand-drawn by Martin Peeves in bold black line and compressed value — reducing image to structure, presence, and force. These works do not imitate photographs; they reinterpret legacy through mark, shadow, and tension.


From independence architects to sonic pioneers, this collection traces the lineage of Ghanaian influence across generations.


This is not nostalgia.

This is recognition.


Wear the culture.

Carry the history.
