DWELVE: A Goosebump in Memory documents Jadé Fadojutimi’s inaugural exhibition with Gagosian, and features a newly commissioned essay, an interview between the artist and the composer Jerskin Fendrix, and poetic fragments written by Fadojutimi herself.Jadé Fadojutimi is one of the most exciting artists of her generation. In her striking abstract paintings, which are often monumental in scale, Fadojutimi orchestrates color, space, line, and movement in the service of fluid emotion and the quest for self-knowledge. With a fluidity of gesture and a distinctive palette, she interprets everyday experience in ways that reflect a drive to understand more completely the intertwined ideas of identity and beauty.Since 2018, when Fadojutimi became the youngest artist to enter the Tate’s collection, her work has been exhibited at and collected by leading institutions around the world. DWELVE: A Goosebump in Memory documents her debut show at Gagosian, New York, in 2024, which included new paintings on canvas and works in notebooks. The title combines the words dwell and delve, suggesting both domestic familiarity and sites that prompt further discovery.In “A Portrait of the Artist as All of Her Colors,” Harry Thorne revisits Josef Albers’s color theory as a means of repositioning Fadojutimi’s abstractions as a form of self-portraiture. In addition to new photography of Fadojutimi’s paintings and notebooks, which are reproduced using a hexachromatic printing method, the book includes poetic fragments written by the artist, as well as a conversation between her and the Academy Award-nominated composer Jerskin Fendrix about the relationship between soundtracks and art.

Jadé Fadojutimi: Jesture is a publication produced by Pippy Houldsworth Gallery to accompany the second solo exhibition at the gallery of new paintings by London-based artist Jadé Fadojutimi, presented in autumn 2020. The word "Jesture" in the title of the exhibition and publication evokes a sense of the absurd, responding to the disruption of daily rhythms arising from forced isolation during lockdown. Central to Fadojutimi's practice is a repeated questioning of identity, its fluid nature and how the understanding of notions of pleasure, desire and choice are integral to a sense of self. Addressing the exchange between an individual and their environment, the vivid choices of colour and form derive from the associative qualities of the special items that capture her attention and the memories they invoke. Fadojutimi's studio is filled with objects, drawings and writings that evoke nostalgic pleasure. Powerful memories, experienced whilst listening to film, animation and video game soundtracks, transport Fadojutimi to the first time she encountered them, eliciting a response that is experienced through intense colour. The synthesis of these various influences, through which Fadojutimi understands her sense of self, is transformed into large-scale gestural paintings charged with energy and emotion. Described by Fadojutimi as "environments", these complex compositions, neither wholly abstract nor figurative, are built up with layers of oil paint, interrupted by the more linear mark-making made possible by her recent adoption of oil pastels. The introduction of new materials into her painting has enabled Fadojutimi to think more broadly about palette, composition and depth, while translating the spontaneity of her drawing on to the canvas. In her essay for the publication, From Life - Thoughts on the paintings of Jadé Fadojutimi, writer, critic and editor-at-large of frieze magazine Jennifer Higgie writes: "In these paintings, the world, in all of its chaotic glory, exists as an intimation. Art is not an explanation: it's a shot of energy, a flash of colour; a shimmer, a reaction, a line thrown out to see who might pick it up. Pictures are made by people and, like people, their tone can switch direction in the blink of an eye. A painting is a very human thing: they're allowed to be messy. Jadé tells me that her aim is for "deep emotion, not deep description"." This, the artist's first published book, designed by A Practice for Everyday Life and printed by PUSH, London, has been co-published by Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, London, and Anomie Publishing, London. Jadé Fadojutimi (b.1993) lives and works in London. She earned a BA from The Slade School of Fine Art, London, in 2015 and an MA from the Royal College of Art, London, in 2017. After Pippy Houldsworth Gallery took on representation of the artist and presented her first solo exhibition in 2017-18, she had her first one-person institutional show at PEER UK, London in 2019. Acquisitions by Baltimore Museum of Art, ICA Miami, Tate, and a promised gift to Dallas Museum of Art followed soon after. She had her first solo exhibition in Germany with Galerie Gisela Capitain, Cologne, in 2019 and will have her first solo exhibition in Japan with Taka Ishii Gallery, Tokyo, opening March 2021. Fadojutimi has been selected to participate in Liverpool Biennial 2021. Her first solo US museum exhibition will be presented at ICA Miami, opening in November 2021. She will also have a solo exhibition of new work at The Hepworth Wakefield in 2021.
