Fire on Sugar Mountain is a patchwork textile piece combined with a recorded piece of poetry. The artwork explores memories of my childhood home, Antigua, an island that was once scattered with sugar cane plantations. Including the land I grew up on, which my family named Sugar Mountain. Growing up, I experienced this place as a mystical jungle wonderland, but I am now reflecting on it’s largely unknown and undeniably painful history of enslaved Africans that laboured on the land before it became our home. What if the nature and trees of Sugar mountain have kept their spirits all this time? What stories could I hear if I listen close enough? This artwork journeys through notions of struggle, mystery and hope as I imagine an unheard history.
