Tek mi home
to the warmth of yesterday
Memory is never still
In the warmth of light, in the rhythm of rain, in the way certain colours feel like home. There are places we carry long after we’ve left them. Somewhere between what was and what remains, memory softens its edges.
about the series
Tek Mi Home is an ongoing painting series born from my need to look back, not to return, but to understand what shaped me.
The work explores memory, nostalgia, and the quiet longing for belonging that lives in the past. It reflects on growing up in Jamaica, on the textures, colours, and emotional imprints that linger long after time has moved on. These paintings are shaped by fragments: moments remembered not exactly as they were, but as they are felt, softened, warmed, and sometimes romanticised by distance.
