Jacqueline Ennis-Cole is Artist-Curator in Residence at Four Corners Gallery from 3 September until 30 November 2026, as part of the gallery's Youth X Mentoring partnership and Hate Uprooted Diasporic Season (funded with the support of Arts Council England). 

During the residency, Jacqueline is curating the exhibition Cultivating Diasporic Presence: Hate Uprooted, opening at Four Corners Gallery on 21 October 2026 and closing on 14 November 2026.

Jacqueline Ennis-Cole curates photography exhibitions rooted in diasporic and intersectional visual storytelling. She brings the same care and creativity to curating an exhibition as she does to making her artwork.

She holds postgraduate degrees in the anthropology of childhood, youth and education (with a focus on artistic communities of practice), drawing, photography, and the history of photography and curation; this multidisciplinary lens guides how she engages with and curates every exhibition, always with criticality and care. 

Recent exhibitions include Intersectional Geographies: Extraction at Martin Parr Foundation (2022), Intersectional Matter: Waste at Photo/Frome Festival (2023) and Intersectional Grammar: Trees at Hackney Gallery (2024). Recent recognition includes a National Lottery Project Grant (Arts Council England) culminating in the anthology Hatred is a Bitter Fruit (2025), as well as a Spread The Word Deaf and Disabled Writers Commission Award (2024). 

Jacqueline Ennis Cole is the founder and creative director of Youth X Mentoring CIC. She is currently a Slade School of Fine Art practice-led PhD researcher who mentors emerging artists (15-30) while co-facilitating creative workshops across East London. As Curator of Talks and Events at London Independent Photography (LIP) and facilitator of the LIP Satellite Photo Book Group, she co-creates intergenerational spaces for interactive and open dialogue.
