Taisha Carrington

Barbados

Taisha is a multidisciplinary artist working in performance, sculpture, body adornment, and  installation. Her work seeks to promote solidarity with the land and investigate the liminality of  life in the Caribbean after colonialism and into the Anthropocene. Taisha invents ‘devices’ and  explores performances for self-healing and facilitation of social dialogue about climate justice while proposing methods for rebirth, reclamation, and reimagining the value of Caribbean people  and communities.  

Taisha received her BFA from Pratt Institute in 2018 and currently works in Barbados collaborating with biochemists, farmers and medical practitioners to pool knowledge and  resources and shed light on climate change.
