Additional Information
Himid began Jelly Mould Pavilions in 2009 to raise questions about the purpose of monuments and whether there would ever be a city daring enough to commemorate the contribution made by people of the African diaspora to its history, culture and wealth. They were first displayed across six museums and galleries in Liverpool in 2010 and shown as part of the Northern Art Prize, Leeds Art Gallery in 2011, for which Himid received the People’s Choice Award.
On the occasion of the Tate Modern exhibition, Himid has imagined a Jelly Mould Pavilion for London. The limited edition has been made using a cast from an original Victorian jelly mould; a reminder of the African diaspora's link to the sugar industry and slavery. Himid’s design is inspired by brightly coloured motifs from kanga, a traditional printed fabric from East Africa and has been recreated on each jelly mould using glazing techniques and silkscreen decals. Many of the Jelly Mould Pavilions feature portraits of influential black people in the civil rights movement. For Jelly Mould Pavilions for London, 2021, Himid has chosen to depict an eye as a reminder of the human connection.
Each work is accompanied by a certificate which is signed and numbered by the artist.
Prices of the artwork are liable to change. As a limited edition sells out, prices of the artwork are subject to increase and the price will be clearly indicated.
About the Artist
Lubaina Himid (b. 1954, Zanzibar) is known for her innovative approaches to painting and to social engagement. She has been pivotal in the UK since the 1980s for her contributions to the British Black arts movement, making space for the expression and recognition of Black experience and women’s creativity. Over the last decade, she has earned international recognition for her figurative paintings, which explore overlooked and invisible aspects of history and of contemporary everyday life. Her work has been the subject of solo exhibitions in the UK and internationally and her work is held in public collections including the UK Government Art Collection; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; Victoria & Albert Museum, London; Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester and Hammer Museum, Los Angeles. In 2017 she was awarded the Turner Prize and in 2018 she was bestowed with the honorary title of CBE for her contributions to the arts. She is Professor of Contemporary Art at the University of Central Lancashire and lives and works in Preston, UK.
