Scottish artist Nnena Kalu, known for her large-scale abstract drawings and hanging sculptures, has won the Turner Prize 2025.

The Glaswegian, 59, took home the prize at an award ceremony on Tuesday evening in Bradford, this year’s UK City of Culture.

Kalu was awarded the visual arts prize along with £25,000 for her installation Hanging Sculpture 1-10, which Manifesta 15 Barcelona commissioned her to create at a disused power station, and her presentation in Conversations, a group exhibition at Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool.

Her vividly-coloured works are created from repeated lines and wrappings of different materials, making nest or cocoon-like forms.

The installation consisted 10 large brightly-coloured sculptures that hung from grey concrete pillars of the industrial site.
