Loved my trip to the exhibition 'Radical Figures', at the Whitechapel Gallery today. In a rather worrying current climate the trip offered some much needed escapism! This is a group show and focuses on the human form - well worth a visit just for the colour and vivacity of the work.

One room explained the different artists' practice a little more - fabric scraps from multimedia artist Tschabalala Self, or postcards from Ryan Mosley's studio wall. Mosley once worked as a guard at the National Gallery and collected postcards from his time there.
Radical Figures is on a The Whitechapel Gallery until 10th May 2020
