Episode 1 of New Additions features artist Tunji Adeniyi-Jones in discussion of his life, practice, and work in the Studio Museum’s collection, "A Flashy Encounter" (2021).
Based in New York and born in London to Nigerian parents, Adeniyi-Jones received his MFA from Yale in 2017 after completing his BFA at Oxford University. Adeniyi-Jones's work is deeply inspired by his Yoruba heritage and carries a distinct artistic style filled with vibrant colors, repeating forms, and characters. As he says, his artistic style is more akin to “cultural addition, combination, and collaboration.” Most recently, Tunji, along with seven other artists, represented Nigeria in the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale in 2024.
