‘Roots in the Sky’, a group exhibition curated by Tunji Adeniyi-Jones, explores the cultural pluralism and layered identities that define the Black diaspora.
Marking Tunji’s first institutional curatorial project, the exhibition presents the work of ten contemporary artists whose practices span the United States, Europe and West Africa.
Discussing the exhibition, Tunji has said: ‘Our artistic roots are rarely as individual as wider culture might lead us to believe. Each of our stories shares points of departure or arrival, and revolves around a constant interpretation of the past, present and speculative future.’ 💬
Featured artists: Tunji Adeniyi-Jones, Alvaro Barrington, Jade de Montserrat, Ivy Kalungi, Joy Labinjo, Sahara Longe, Nengi Omuku, Elena Njoabuzia Onwochei-Garcia, Tschabalala Self and Shaqúelle Whyte.
📍‘Roots in the Sky’ is on view at HOME, Manchester, UK until 25 January 2026.
