Hailing from Jamaica, Sydney based artist, Robin Clare’s recent work is inspired by dancehall culture and the brilliant aesthetics of Jamaican party promotions. Her work explores the scope of imagery used throughout the decades since Jamaican music hit the worlds stage. The range covers large scale paintings referencing outrageous party names and slick and sexy imagery that surrounds the scene today. Mid size pieces inspired by dances and other pop culture that has emerged from the scene. To quick, gritty little screen prints harking back to the rough and ready aesthetic of 1970's era reggae promotion when sound systems traveled around on the back of beat up old pick up trucks.
