AdeY is a multidisciplinary visual artist dancing between photography and performance.
AdeY is a fine art photographer and performance artist whose work delves into the vulnerability, intimacy, and raw beauty of the human form. Specialising in nude photography, AdeY captures moments of quiet tension and emotional resonance, weaving physicality and storytelling to reveal the unspoken narratives within the body.
With a background in contemporary dance, AdeY’s compositions celebrate the interplay of movement and stillness, often framing the human figure in stark, minimalist settings that amplify their emotional impact. Their creative practice draws deeply on themes of identity, connection, humour, and the delicate balance between strength and fragility.
Through a portfolio that bridges photography and choreography, AdeY’s work has been featured in exhibitions and performances that challenge societal norms, inviting audiences to connect with the complex beauty of human vulnerability.

AdeY has exhibited extensively across the globe at prestigious venues such as Fotografiska (Stockholm, Sweden), CLAMP (New York, USA), Galerie XII (Los Angeles, USA), Chaussee 36 (Berlin, Germany), The Little Black Gallery (London, UK), The Finnish Museum of Photography (Helsinki, Finland), Fotogalleri Vasli Souza (Oslo, Norway), Falsterbo Photo Art Museum (Sweden), Paris Photo (France), and Unseen (Amsterdam, Netherlands).
His critically acclaimed photobook, UNCENSORED, first published to coincide with his debut U.S. show at Galerie XII (2021–2022), quickly sold out. The touring exhibition and the book's second edition were launched in London with The Little Black Gallery to coincide with Photo London, followed by highly successful exhibitions in NYC and Berlin later that year.

“His work takes you to deserted beaches, rooftops and even head-first into washing machines. His subjects are twisted like play-doh round each other, and it can take a few seconds to figure out where their limbs begin and end. It's theater in motion..”
