Project Description

Motilal Jattan’s canvas piece, titled “Resilience in Red, Black, and White,” powerfully captures the black struggle through the evocative use of the Trinidad & Tobago flag’s colors. The painting’s red tones symbolize the bloodshed and sacrifices made throughout history, while the stark black represents the enduring strength and resilience of the Black community. White accents weave through the composition, suggesting a glimmer of hope and the ongoing fight for equality and justice. The dynamic interplay of these colors creates a vivid, emotive landscape that reflects both the pain and the enduring spirit of those who have fought and continue to fight against racial oppression.
