Alvaro Barrington Studio presents COME HOME, an exclusive portfolio showcasing the works of eight contemporary artists: Alvaro Barrington, Denzil Forrester, Jasmine Thomas-Girvan, Lisa Brice, Paul Anthony Smith, Peter Doig, Rachel Jones, and Simonette Quamina. The limited edition of 50 unique prints, will be sold as a portfolio housed in a wooden box designed by Nigel Gideon.
The participating artists draw inspiration from the Caribbean, its diaspora and Carnival culture. COME HOME is an exploration of diverse artistic practices, each print offering a unique perspective on the vibrancy of communities, traditions, and culture associated with Carnival.
All proceeds from the portfolio sales will go to the Carnival Village Trust, the leading development agency for Carnival Arts in the United Kingdom. The organisation operates two strategic arts venues and works with carnival arts groups to facilitate workshops and programmes throughout the year. Most notably, Carnival Village Trust is responsible for managing Notting Hill Carnival, the biggest Caribbean street event in Europe.
