Tyler Mitchell, the photographer behind Vogue’s 2018 September issue featuring Beyoncé, will have his first solo exhibition, I Can Make You Feel Good, at Foam Magazine in Amsterdam, the museum announced.

The exhibit will officially launch April 18, and features a collection of the artist’s personal and commissioned work. Along with his photography, the exhibit will also be premiering two video works, “Idyllic Work” and “Chasing Pink, Found Red.”

“Tyler Mitchell’s work visualises a black utopia. Making use of candy colour palettes and natural light, Mitchell captures young black people in gardens, parks or in front of idyllic studio backdrops where they appear as free, expressive, effortless, sensitive and proud,” Foam said in a statement.

Mitchell first rose to the attention of the fashion world by making history as the first black photographer to shoot a cover for Vogue in its 126 years of print.

I Can Make You Feel Good will be on exhibit until June 5.
