About the Artist

Kristianne Buxo is a self taught artist working in acrylic and mixed media. Deeply connected to her Grenadian heritage and identity, she takes much of her inspiration from the island’s culture and flora. Known for her use of bright colours, patterned dot work and pointillism, her paintings are a combination of representational and abstract art.

Artist Statement

Through the lens of nostalgia I endeavour to preserve and honour elements of Grenadian culture especially those that are being lost completely to time. It is my fascination with this melting pot of peoples and their traditions over the centuries that drives me to create.
I choose bold colours to reflect the flamboyant hues that envelop me on my tropical island .
My repetitive patterns and rhythmic circles are reminiscent of our pulsating music and dance, even the undulating lilt of our accent all whilst showered with the warm golden sun which I represent with flecks of gold in my work.
It is this cadence in nature and people, that is the essence of being a West Indian. I look at the world I live in and love, I listen to journey of others especially my elders and all the folklore passed down and I am inspired to document my experience as well as those who have shared their stories with me.
