Overview

In July 2025, artist Harold Offeh will develop new work for family audiences in collaboration with Baltic’s communities through Baltic’s Neighbourly programmes. For two decades Harold Offeh has produced work in a range of media including performance, video, photography, learning and social arts practice. Offeh is interested in the space created by the inhabiting or embodying of histories and explores subjects ranging from pop culture to identity and conformity.

His playful and provocative works often employ humour as a means to confront the viewer with historical narratives and contemporary culture. He has exhibited widely in the UK and internationally drawing from music, film and mainstream cultural trends to interrogate political, class, gender and racial models in society. Most recently, through performance and collective live engagements, Offeh explores themes of happiness, play and Afrofuturism.
