Pitch Lake (2020)

Acrylic, mixed media collage on canvas. 20 x 30”

The story of Trinidad and Tobago – my home – as well as the many other stories of our land are layered in our pitch lake, and in every bit of Earth under our feet. Have we forgotten this? Is the Pitch Lake nothing else but another resource to be extracted, exploited, exported?
