Nii Odai is the working name of Theophilus Tetteh, a painter from Accra. An online artist directory calls him an experimental, expressionist painter. He uses bold colour almost straight from the tube, in a raw, near-primary state, but still builds real depth into his pictures. His subjects come from Ghanaian life: crowds, buildings, townscapes and landscapes, portraits, and village scenes. He belongs to the Ghana Association of Visual Artists (GAVA). Painters of this kind are widely sold through Accra galleries, street galleries and tourist outlets. No details of his training, exhibitions or museum holdings were found online.
School or movement: Ghanaian contemporary (expressionist).
