This artwork is inspired by my love for dancehall and my trip to Jamaica. We traveled to Kingston and Portland. We took dancehall classes from local crews and explored Jamaica’s natural beauty. The energy and creativity are magically contagious. The language, Jamaican patois, is colorful and is everywhere between the signage and conversation. Dancehall brought me to Jamaica, has connected me to some amazing people, and in general has elevated my life.
(“Fully Active” is a phrase created by the dance crew, “Active Immortals”, from Kingston Jamaica.)
