In Wish You Were Here, commissioned by the Hyman Collection,[4] Agyepong channels the American vaudeville performer Aida Overton Walker, by posing for a series of fake postcards.[5] The work addresses physical and mental wellbeing.[6]
The Body Remembers is a solo performance that "explores how trauma lives in the body, particularly for Black British women across different generations."[7][8]
