The artist describes: “The work of this exhibition became colorful and contrasting like Jamaican life. The inhabitants of the island and there have given inspiration lush nature – warm sun and the Caribbean Sea. I have taken the impulse directly about nature and local culture – I printed hemp leaves on a plywood board and I added acrylic paint in bright tones typical of Jamaica as a last coat, which flows and pulsates in paintings like local folk music – reggae in rhythms. “
