Rising young artist Shaqúelle Whyte rewrites classical narratives with his expressive brushstrokes, imbuing his works with physicality, ambiguity and rhythm
Shaqúelle Whyte may be early in his career, but his richly atmospheric paintings have quickly pegged him as a rising star in the art world.
Born in Wolverhampton, he graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art in 2022, going on to receive an MA from the Royal College of Art in 2023. Group exhibitions at Hauser & Wirth Somerset and Grimm in Amsterdam followed, as well as solo exhibitions at Pippy Houldsworth Gallery in 2025 and White Cube Hong Kong in 2026.
Whyte is now settled in London, working in his Dalston studio on figurative paintings that are united by strong storytelling.
A fluid capturing of a moment in time, each is its own fully formed scene. Whyte's works are ambiguous - he sets the theatrical stage and leaves it for the viewer to decipher.
