White Cube (Bermondsey) – Tunji Adeniyi-Jones: That Which Binds Us
19 November, 2021 - 9 January, 2022
White Cube Bermondsey is pleased to present ‘That Which Binds Us’, an exhibition of new paintings by Tunji Adeniyi-Jones and his first with the gallery. Coinciding with the artist’s inaugural UK museum presentation ‘Astral Reflections’ at Charleston in Sussex, the works focus on expressive figuration and, as the artist states, ‘how the transformative nature of the Black experience is nourished by travel, movement and cultural hybridity’. Informed by his own Yoruba heritage, in his paintings Adeniyi-Jones fuses West African mythology and iconography with the seeming immutability of the Western art canon.
