Babajide Brian’s Solo Exhibition ‘Then, Now and Forever’ at Stage Gallery
Past Exhibition: 13 September – 30 September 2025
Stage Gallery, 55a Nigel Road, Peckham, London, SE15 4NP
Free Admission
We were thrilled for ActionSpace artist Babajide Brian to exhibit a solo show at Stage Gallery in September. Titled ‘Then, Now and Forever’, the exhibition brought together a collection of drawings and prints from Babajide’s ongoing body of work exploring the culture, history and lived experiences surrounding over 30 years of Premier League football.
Read about the works in the artists’s own words:
“The drawings explore the culture of the sport and how it has evolved. Through the drawings, I add in my own unique take on its history to the present. This artwork is based on research and highlights anti-discrimination and racism, which has existed for decades, not just within the sport but from a societal point of view as well. It not only focuses on the history of the Premier League but also focuses on each football club, its identity, its historical past, the supporters, and the city that it represents”
