Hand of Gold is a selection of work from the oeuvre of Ghanaian ceramic artist of note, Kingsley Kofi Broni (K.K. Broni). These works form a huge wealth of pride for KNUST's Opoku Ware II Museum. K.K Broni is an Alumnus of the Ceramics Section of the College of Art (now Faculty of Art). He developed a studio practice that was totally dedicated to working with his choice material, clay. He believed in the notion of "dignity in labour" and remained committed to this throughout his academic career. Having been so dedicated to his art, he deemed it very important not to sell off his works, but to store them up for posterity.
