Jadé Fadojutimi, at 27 years old, is at present the youngest artist to have work in the Tate’s permanent collection.

Since graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2017, the London based artist, known for her vivid use of colour and emotional, abstract oil paintings, has created a name for herself as one of the UK’s rising art stars, with her second solo UK exhibition currently on view at the Pippy Houldsworth Gallery in Mayfair, ahead of shows at the Hepwroth Wakefield, ICA Miami, and Tokyo’s Taka Ishii Gallery. Fadojutimi, who's participating in next year’s Liverpool Biennale and has been spotlighted in Vogue, The Guardian and i-D Magazine, says her most recent body of work, Jesture, created mostly during lockdown, captures ‘the absurdity of this time’ and described it as ‘a really extensive, anxious noodle’.
