“Meet the Our Model”
Kofi Arku
AMPIA-ADDISON
My name is Kofi Arku AMPIA-ADDISON, and I am from Ghana, West Africa, currently living in Vienna. My modeling career actually began when I made the conscious decision to become a model. At a time when I was still discovering myself, I listed the things I would love to pursue passionately—and, as you might expect, modeling was on that list.
I always thought it would be something I love, but in every shooting I find myself loving it even more. Just recently I had a shooting with Manuel in Bratislava and I am confident enough to say it was quite remarkable even as a Beginner. Till now I have not faced any challenges of any sort yet and if I do so in the future, I can surely believe that I will learn how to overcome any obstacle that shows up. For me personally, every shoot is a big “shoot”, so what I do is prepare myself by meditating, visualising or seeing myself putting up a great show.

​My modelling style blends professionalism with natural charisma, some would say. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every set, creating a strong presence that connects with the camera and audience alike. Whether it’s fashion, lifestyle or runway. I aim to express confidence and authenticity in every frame.
As a model, I believe one should stand out strongly in every way, anyways if one should choose a preference, it would be the runway modelling. I think modelling is a way of expressing art. Storytelling is the heart of art. Every shoot or runway moment communicates a mood, a lifestyle, or a brand message. As a model, I think it's my role to bring that vision to life - expressing emotions and creating connections that make people feel something when they see the image.
People I come across in every shoot inspire me. Well, about motivation all I can say is a wise man once said “Dont wait for motivation, it will never come” and somehow that alone gives me the feeling of motivation which keeps me going every single day.
My biggest goal in modelling would be, when I can present myself as a strong brand. I have dreams of working with brands like GUESS, BOSS and other Top designer brands. My advice to other aspiring models who are willing to break through into the industry would be for them to put in the work, time, money, energy and if they have something to sacrifice, they should do so, as soon as it’s what they are really dreaming of becoming.
