Richard Nattoo: The Ant Takes Flight

Judeslist

In this episode, I speak with Richard Nattoo, a distinguished artist from Jamaica. His work has been exhibited at the National Gallery of Jamaica and has been showcased in solo and group exhibitions across the UK and Ireland. Renowned for his unique mastery of watercolors, pen, and ink on canvas, Richard utilizes water from natural sources to bring his visions to life.
Richard also opens up about the challenging times he faced in 2019 and how art helped him navigate through those difficult moments. He delves into the themes and symbolism in his artwork, including the exploration of ancestry, spirituality, and the importance of introspection. Richard shares his experiences of reconnecting with his inner child and the ongoing process of self-discovery.
