Sika Bonsu
Sika Bonsu (she/her) is an artist and curator whose work is grounded in Black feminist thought. She creates spaces across image, text and exhibitions that honor Black feminine wisdom and advance self-determined ways of knowing. Carrying heritage from the Asante kingdom of Ghana, Bonsu’s practice is shaped by histories of migration and the shared aesthetic languages across the Black Diaspora.
Her training in art history, gender studies and museum practice deepens her commitment to reimagining how institutions preserve and value culture. She holds a BA in Art History and Gender & Women’s Studies from Virginia Commonwealth University and an MA in Museum Studies from New York University, where her research oriented abstraction in Black femininity, reframing it as a strategy of refusal within systems that have historically denied Black femme agency.
