About

Tinuke Fagborun Is a British Nigerian illustrator based in the North West. She celebrates diverse storytelling, her art is a colourful and optimistic response to the dominant narrative surrounding women of colour in media and the art world. She creates illustrations in which women are uncensored, empowered, otherworldly and the architects of their own rich stories.
