Volg het Spoor (2025)
In june 2025, the book Volg het Spoor was published as a public-oriented edition of a research project on the involvement of Arnhem and the province of Gelderland in the Dutch slavery past. The book presents dozens of historical stories that link the city of Arnhem and its institutions, families, and streets to the Dutch colonial system and the transatlantic slave trade. I was asked to create the cover illustration for this publication.


Bittere Oogst (2025)
From April 18 to August 31, 2025, Valkhof Museum presents the exhibition Bittere Oogst/Bitter Harvest. The exhibition reveals the hidden history of slavery and resistance through a unique diorama of a Surinamese coffee plantation from 1823, crafted by Gerrit Schouten. Artist Richard Kofi made the drawings for the poster of the exhibit. His project Draden van ons Nederlandse slavernijverleden is part of the exhibition's program.


Draden van ons Nederlandse Slavernijverleden (2025)
In every province of the Netherlands, residents are working together on an impressive tapestry that depicts the regional history of the colonial slavery past. For Gelderland, artist and curator Richard Kofi designed a tapestry no less than 35 meters long, which expresses both history and hope for the future.
