Doyle Wham is the UK's first and only contemporary African photography gallery. The gallery was founded in October 2020 with an itinerant programme of physical and digital exhibitions. In March 2022, Doyle Wham launched its first permanent location in Shoreditch, London.
The gallery exhibits emerging and established artists from Africa and across the African diaspora, with a focus on supporting early-career artists and building their careers both through and outside of exhibitions. Highlighting innovative and experimental expression is at the core of Doyle Wham's ethos and its exhibitions celebrate photography in all its forms.
