Kwabena Yeboah (born 1960) is a Ghanaian contemporary artist recognized as a pioneer of silk thread art in Africa. His threading technique reflects the artistic and expressive power of painting. Drawing from the rich symbolism of Kente weaving, he reimagines and transforms strands of silk, establishing it within a contemporary art context.

Yeboah's vibrant and colorful abstractions explore and depict common threads among Africans and diaspora societies and socio-cultural themes globally. His work is held in prestigious private and public collections, including The Kwame Nkrumah Museum of Ghana, the Novartis Headquarters in Switzerland, and Kalahari Resorts, US.
