In this episode, I sit down with Henrika Muthoni Amoafo for an introspective dialogue on self-discovery in liminal spaces — the in-between. Together, we reflect on mindfulness, discernment, and how we move through the layered terrain of the contemporary art world. Almost a year later, I caught up with Henrika to ask what’s shifted since we recorded this episode. Here’s what she had to say: "Reflecting on our dialogue on Her Palette almost a year ago, I’m struck by how we explored everything from authenticity and self-discovery to the ways we navigate care and community. We walked those paths between tradition and innovation, examining the evolving contemporary art landscape while integrating mindfulness throughout…......Listening back, I’m particularly drawn to how our conversation embodies the liminal space—that transformative area between established understanding and new perspectives. As someone navigating life through multiple modalities like art, movement, writing, and facilitation, I find this in-between space crucial for understanding myself, collaborating across boundaries, and driving meaningful change."Henrika Muthoni Yaa Amoafo is a Kenyan-Ghanaian curator, cultural practitioner, and facilitator whose work bridges artistic curation with wellness and social change. Based in Accra with roots in Nairobi, she creates thoughtful, community-centered experiences that nurture storytelling, equity, and belonging across exhibitions, conversations, and collaborative programs. As Gallery Manager at ADA Contemporary Art Gallery, she leads curatorial and programmatic initiatives that spotlight historically marginalized voices across Africa and the diaspora, while fostering meaningful dialogue between local patronage and the global art market. Henrika draws on her background in business from Ashesi University and her intercultural training as a Senior Fellow of the Melton Foundation to inform a practice grounded in mindfulness, care, and connection.Women In Arts highlighted in this episode: Bisi Silva (@ccalagos)Koyo Kouoh (@madamekoyo) Odile Tevie (@nubuke_foundation) faridah folawiyo (@ff_projects_) Kimberly Drew (@museummammy) Aindrea Emelife (@aindreaemelife) Solange Knowles (@solangeknowles)Tokini Peterside-Schwebig (@artxlagos) Listen to this episode on Spotify, Apple Podcast and Oroko Radio.
