‘Colors Everywhere’ Bermuda to the Rubell Foundation

in #art7 years ago

                        I draw inspiration from Bermuda, the homeland of my father,

“I was surprised when I went to Bermuda for the first time—the history of slavery there is invisible, even though it’s omnipresent,”

 The Work

The works are intricate. These colourful, enrapturing paintings, using acrylic and oil paint, render loosely abstracted landscapes, often incorporating dark black figures—phantom-like beings who become the centrepiece of each work. The results are stark, arresting, strange, and imaginative.

The poses inspired by the dance traditions of the Caribbean and Bermuda. I also taken to using some of the natural materials he collected in Bermuda into his paintings

Using acrylic and oil paint:
