Projects

Threading the Art Ecosystem: Insights, Narratives, and Perspectives Shaping the Art World is a free, expert-led conversation series that invites open discussions around art, creativity, and cultural practice.

Through these talks, Jadé brings together artists, curators, collectors, critics, and cultural thinkers to share perspectives, unpack creative processes, and engage with the realities shaping today’s art world.

Whether you are an art enthusiast, a seasoned collector, a budding artist, or simply curious about the world of art, the series is designed as a window into the heart of the art ecosystem.

Unfolding Lands is a curatorial research project exploring how artists map the movement of people, memory, and cosmologies across time and geography.

While migration is often understood as the physical movement of bodies across borders, it is also the movement of knowledge systems, spiritual worlds, and ancestral memory. Through artistic practice, these invisible worlds become visible.

The project functions both as an exhibition platform and as a growing archive, tracing artistic practices that engage with migration, diaspora, cosmology, and cultural memory.

Through this project, Jadé honours artists whose work makes visible the connections between land, memory, and the worlds we carry with us.

The Manuscript is a curatorial platform and evolving drawing project initiated in 2017 to explore the limitless possibilities of drawing as both medium and process.

Rooted in experimentation, materiality, and imagination, the project was conceived as a space where artists could engage drawing beyond convention, not simply as preparation but as a complete and expansive artistic language.

Through online exhibitions, curatorial research, and collaborative programming, The Manuscript creates visibility for artists working across traditional and experimental approaches, from graphite, charcoal, and ink to contemporary mixed-media and process-driven practices.

Now developing into an international platform between Nigeria and the United Kingdom, The Manuscript continues Jadé’s wider commitment to reflection, dialogue, and cultural exchange within modern and contemporary African art.
