Paul Majek
b. 2000, London
Paul Majek is a London-based artist who received his BFA in Fine Art from the University of Oxford's Ruskin School of Art (2023) and completed postgraduate studies at the Royal Drawing School (2024). His practice explores the fluidity of figures, engaging with themes of memory, generational dialogue, and spirituality. Working primarily with oil, acrylic, and charcoal, he employs layering techniques to experiment with opacity and transparency, integrating painting with video, sculpture, and found objects to create altar-like installations.
Recent recognition includes a residency at Borgo Pignano, Italy (2024) and the Next Gen Masters award as part of the Bicester Village x LUX Magazine Celebration of Emerging Artists (2024). His work has been acquired and exhibited at The Maffioli Art Group at The Scalpel, and he received the 2024 Morrison Foerster Art Prize. He has exhibited with Annely Juda Gallery, House of Annetta as part of Whitechapel Gallery's Backyard Biennial: East (2026), and was shortlisted for the Cass Art Prize.
