Queer, Nigerian, and Sculpting Her Own Life: Meet Artist Sade Cole

Meet Sade Cole — a queer Nigerian artist, former celebrity stylist, and now a full-time sculptor based in California. From styling icons like Ciara and Wizkid to creating minimalist 3D sculptures that explore identity and heritage, Sade’s journey is nothing short of inspiring.

We talk about what it means to be queer and Nigerian, how she’s navigated visibility and vulnerability across cultures, and the path she’s taken to sculpt a life that truly reflects who she is. From fashion to tech to venture capital — and back to art — Sade shares how she’s carved out space for herself in every industry she’s entered.

If you’ve ever felt caught between where you come from and who you’re becoming, this one’s for you.

Thank you so much to Sade for joining the GXG conversation!
