Sabina Silver (b. Kumasi, Ghana) is a visual artist based in Amsterdam. Her work explores themes of migration, memory, identity, and emotional states, often drawing on her Ghanaian heritage as well as everyday experiences. She uses a restrained palette—most often red, black, and white—rooted in traditional Ghanaian symbolism, to reflect on loss, resilience, and the possibility of repair.

Her recent paintings explore the space between tension and ease. Figures often appear in states of pause—resting, reflecting, or simply being. These quieter compositions mark a shift in her practice, moving away from more symbolic and tightly rendered works toward openness, softness, and stillness. Nature appears throughout—not as background, but as a presence—with plants and animals acting as markers of change and continuity.

Silver’s interest lies in how emotion lives in the body, how memory shapes us, and how visual language can create space for reflection. She has exhibited in institutions including The National Gallery and continues to develop work that brings together personal and shared experiences without needing to explain either.
