As part of Black History Month, Hammersmith BID has commissioned a digital exhibition, entitled ‘What does Black Art mean to you?’. The piece has been curated by Bolanle Tajudeen, the founder of Black Blossoms School of Art & Culture, with portraits by up-and-coming London-based photographer Sadé Elufowoju.

Black artistic and creative culture is embedded in the fabric of British society. Through the words of emerging creatives, this show explores what black art means to their work and lives, whilst also presenting the artwork of some of the most exciting Black visual artists living in Britain today.

The exhibition features Black creatives, all of whom share their thoughts and appreciation of Black Art. These participants include Reni Eddo-Lodge, a London-based, award-winning journalist and author; Tobi Oredein, the founder of Black Ballad, a lifestyle platform and membership for Black British women; and Symeon Brown, a reporter and journalist at Channel 4 News.
