Jadé Fadojutimi (born 1993) is a British painter. Fadojutimi lives and works in London, United Kingdom.
Early life and education[]
Fadojutimi was born in London, England in 1993.[1] In 2015, she graduated with a BA from the Slade School of Fine Art, London.[2] In 2017, she earned an MA from the Royal College of Art, London.[3]
Inspiration[]
After graduating from Slade, Fadojutimi took a trip to Japan. Her second encounter with Japanese culture took place in Kyoto, during a residency in 2016, which helped the artist process initial difficulties that came with integrating local culture. Expressing an ongoing interest in anime and Japanese landscapes, Fadojutimi returns five to six times a year to draw. As the artist reveals to Ocula Magazine in a 2020 interview, 'Kyoto started so much for me, that's my whole painting language, and the country has this preciousness of a start'.[4]
Work[]
Fadojutimi's abstract paintings are inspired by source material ranging from Japanese anime to Victoriana chairs, clothing and art history.[5] Her paintings contain both abstract and figurative elements.[6]
