Jadé Fadojutimi

Jadé Fadojutimi’s gestural canvases explore identity, environment, and the formation of the self. Her vivid paintings weave together color fields and explosive brushstrokes with more subtle representational cues: The perceptive viewer can spot faint landscape lines and objects such as stockings and hats. Fadojutimi’s paintings reveal layers of meaning upon thoughtful, extended viewings. The artist studied at the Slade School of Fine Art before receiving her MA from the Royal College of Art, and she has exhibited in London, Berlin, Cologne, and Kyoto. Fadojutimi’s debut institutional solo show opens in 2021 at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, and her works belong in the collections of the Hammer Museum, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Stedelijk Museum, the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Tate, and the Walker Art Center. Her paintings have achieved up to seven figures at auction.
