Kenturah Davisis an artist working between Los Angeles and Accra (Ghana). Her work oscillates between various facets of portraiture and design.

This manifests in a variety of forms including drawings, textiles, sculpture and performances. Her work has been included in institutional exhibitions in Africa, Asia, Australia and Europe. Davis earned her BA from Occidental College and MFA Yale University School of Art. Davis was commissioned by LA Metro to create large-scale, site-specific works permanently installed on the new Crenshaw/LAX rail line. Davis was an inaugural artist fellow at NXTHVN in New Haven, CT.
